Please enlighten me - how many times did you fly Mr Brown?
Question is irrelevant Cazatou, and my apologies if you thought my intention was meant to distract from your personal view of George Brown.
Affable he may have been, in your presence. I was merely quoting from a book by
A. N. Wilson, 'Our Times', in which he describes Brown, among other things, as a drunken buffoon. The anecdote I quoted was intended to illustrate this.
True or not, it's a humorous story IMHO.

On Look East News tonight, they said the Government has ditched a Centralised Fire Fighting Control Centre at Waterbeach Cambs, having spent £4.5 million on it!
