Amen to that.
At least all of the scotsmans training records went missing (conveniently for him), so there is nothing to stop him (apart from ability) from doing the job!
Still, he may surprise us all, and disappear by himself (or in a dark alley )

"There's no nepotism in SAA - just because my son happens to be head of fuel purchasing; various nieces and nephews in flight ops etc... it means nothing!"
Who said that???

Thought I'd dig out this blast from the past instead of posting a new thread.
Wow! That's a lot of embarrasment.

By Sapa
President Thabo Mbeki will finally receive his luxury plane, according to Finance Minister Trevor Manuel's Budget.
A total of R300m will be spent over the next two years for the purchase of a long-range aircraft to be used mainly by the president. according to the Estimates of National Expenditure 2001 document.
The defence vote reflects an extra R200m in the 2001/02 financial year, and R100m the following year to fund this purchase.
Opposition parties last year criticised the president when news first broke that Mbeki wanted a new plane.
However, the presidency defended the intended purchase, saying the current plane was too small, old and had even broken down on state visits, embarrassing the president.
Meanwhile, the medium term expenditure estimates for the presidency - which consists of the office of the president and the deputy president - reflects a significant increase, to R89,8m, from the R79,7m revised estimate for the previous year.
It is estimated the budget for the presidency will be R97,7m in 2002/03 and R103m in 2003/4.
According to the Estimates of National Expenditure 2001, the increase is due to the expansion of activities in the private office and Cabinet service.
The allocation would also fund an electronic document management system to handle the presidency's ever-increasing correspondence.

Quote: Star - Fly SAA, says DA...
President Thabo Mbeki should follow the example of fellow international leaders and make use of the national airline for all long-haul flights on his trips abroad, the Democratic Alliance said. According to yesterday's Budget, a total of R300-million will be spent over the next two years for the purchase of a long-range aircraft to be used mainly by the president.

Simple ... go to the image you want, then right-click on it and click "select image location". Then come here, type [img]right click and click on 'paste'[/img] and away you go!
(That's applicable for Netscape - have no idea how to get the image location in IE!)
OK, I have just played around ... you'll need to go to properties, highlight the location and click on 'copy'. Then you'll be able to do this...

But can you do this Guv?
The Ant, if you click on
you can see how a message has been put together (although you can't edit it). What Guv forgot to point out is that the image must be available on the internet first.
