    What a way to go.
    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

      Radio 2 says no, they were just about to go up.

            Been expecting something like this

            I used to have a flat near the Battersea Heliport, its very near there. Over the last ten years the number of flights has escalated to an unbearable level and it was quite clear it was only a matter of time before a major incident happened. Lucky it wasn't worse but I doubt they will cut back on the flights. It was a major factor in our selling-up and leaving the area.

            There were days when there were continual take-offs/landings from 07:00 to 18:00.

                I was nearby at the time - the helicopter was over the MI6 building when a missile hit it.

                I told the Sun - but they are not publishing. I suspect a cover up.

                  Isn't it about time that they fitted ejector seats in helicopters

                  Oh perhaps not

                  Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                  I preferred version 1!

                      Is that a joke?
