    Amen to that. I remember the days when you could buy a smut magazine from a newsagent on a Sunday but it was illegal to buy a bible.

    It seems mighty odd to me that politicians can't join the dots with regard to licensing laws being relaxed and town centres being overtaken by drunken yobs. As if there isn't a relationship....

            The "Stewarts" as a proper British Royal Family, as opposed to the mad (Saxe-Coburg-Goethe) German one we have been saddled with.

                Does she have a brother? (with an equally similar whisky collection?)

                  Nope, classic cars apparently. Old scrappers to be more accurate.

                    The 70's vision of the future, the reality is a bit disappointing if you ask me.
                    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
