    watching a thing about the A10 'warthog', whilst waiting for dinner to heat.
    why didn't they keep those?
    perfect, when you're fighting toyota pickups.
    and a bloody sight cheaper to run than F16/18/22/what****inever.
    who needs stealth, fighting militia's ?

    rant over, hungry

      Does being told to down tools cause you’re not going to get paid anything extra count as SDC, or somewhere worth working?
      Ah...

      Did they force you to down tools, or did they merely suggest you may want to finish at a different time but the decision ultimately remained with you?

        Watched Stacey Dooley Investigates, about whale hunting.

        I actually quite like her style of reporting. It's a bit like Louis Theroux's - just asking the questions and letting the viewer make their own opinions.

        Now watching the Nikola Tesla episode of Dr Who.

        Took some mint choc chip Carte D'or icecream out the freezer for an evening treat. Letting it soften up before I scoff some.

        Now I wish I had some ginger cake. I think I may make some at the weekend but I suspect by then I won't want it. I'm fickle like that.

          Not forced, the decision ultimately remained with The Dog me. They merely suggested I should take my dog for a long walk.
          …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

            oh, dear.

            oh, well.

                  Really nice tea tonight: chicken thighs in red wine sauce, with potato wedges roasted in duck fat, and petits pois. Delicious

                    Used to be quite common, back in the 1980s-90s, to be driving along the A14 or some other main road in East Anglia and suddenly an A10 or two would be rocketing past overhead across the road, making one hell of a din. The pilots would pretend the road traffic was tanks and use it for target practice
