Wow, it would be great if "The Battle-of-Britain Flight" could have around 35 Spitfires instead of just the few they have at present.

Princess Kate hugged a small child. According to some news outlets this in an indication that she will soon be starting a family.

I suspect they're gonna be needed to defend the Falkland Isles.

Lucky Prince William wasn't with her. Then they might have held hands and then they'd actually be having a baby.....I wasn't very good at school but I didn't think I failed biology that badly.

;) I find sand a bugger to get rid of in tricky areas, hope this has not penetrated into delicate areas of the Spitfires.

Well I've never hugged a strange child in my life, either before or after procreating. :O

What about during?

They would now be useless if they had been buried whole after use, but they were still greased & in their packing cases apparently, from when they had been sent out from Britain, but never assembled & used.

The Sunday Times Rich List 2012 came out -

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/9233605/Sunday-Times-Rich-List-2012-Wealth-of-richest-grows-to-record-levels.html

The rich in the UK have become even richer. \0/

Thanks to their 'wealth generation' unemployment is virtually non-existant, the economy is growing and we'll never see a recession again. Well done fabulous rich people for shitting where you eat.

You brute Lakshmi Mihtal lost 4 billion pounds.

I bet he had to cry himself to sleep in his remaining pile of 12billion pounds.

Actually his daughter was on the secret millionare and was probably the most unpleasant contestant.

Yay for drugs cheats!
Anyone know where the pressure was coming from to overturn the BOA's position?
And does it mean we have to select the cheats?

Who would you rather select?
a) Dwain Chambers, an admitted drug cheat in the past, who has spent the last few years in various programmes to encourage young athletes to be clean. Dwain knows he won't win a medal but wants to complete as part of the Olympic spirit; or
b) Jan Unknown, an ambitious but as yet undetected drugs cheat who fancies himself to scrape into medal contention at his home games. The public don't know him yet, but they will when he gets bronze! silver! maybe gold! (and maybe fails an out of competition test in 2015 when the authorities catch up).

I don't think the answer's simple, but I know mine.

I#d rather give gold to the drunken squaddie who accidentally shoots down Rupert Murdochs helicopter
