Sorry, I promise to stop boring you all with my amazement over how good this wireless broadband thing is soon.......

But here I am, listening to live 'Hit Radio FFH - Fur Hessen, Deutschland und die Welt' in crystal stereophonic clarity whilst typing this.....and yet only 40 years ago I was stumbling about with my first crystal set, straining to pick up Radio Luxembourg.

Progress is truly amazing. Yet we no longer seem capable of sending people to the moon - and soon we'll no longer be able to fly passengers supersonically in luxurious surroundings.

Which'll mean that the dear old Vickers Super FunBus will once again be the fastest transport aeroplane in the sky, perhaps? Although I'm no longer in HMFC, it was only a year ago when I last saw an IMN in excess of M0.9 in the dear old thing over the Bristol Channel! And nothing fell off either!!
