Never heard it called squirreling before :D :D Actually those custard doughnuts did taste a bit odd :rolleyes:
Anyway, Egos at Colt, don't you know that WWW has left now ;) INCOMING!!!!!

Yeah alright you got me! Hey the South Atlantic's a really mellowing experience. You should try it some time! ;)

Things are always worse than they seem!

Who said we NH are not doing anything. I'm just listening watching and waiting, preferably for more donuts!!! :) :) :)

And from Norwich and Colt, via Anglia Radar to Aberdeen!

HIJACK HIJACK come on, it's time we had another one!

:D :cool: :p :p

Hey great, a new entrant to the Nch thread. Maybe we could set up an un-official southern north sea air-space users group...and NOT invite the fighter controllers. Maybe we'd even get stuff done? Naaaaaah, never catch on.

Stopbar, if we've given you the idea we think you do no work I'm very sorry, we know you do, even if the originator of this thread didn't. :) :)

Things are always worse than they seem!

No offence taken, whowhenwhy, but thanks for the thought.

Adge Cutler - couldn't agree more. It is definitly time for the Ice Station to hijack a thread once more; it's over six months since we last did it! (And the hijack!)
:D :D :D :D

Colts and Norwich - all this talk about egos is very confusing as I thought EGOS was good old Shawbury! :confused: ;) :confused:

Well, Well the natives are getting restless up there, must be the perpetual darkness in the far North ;) It's nice to see that everyone has completely forgotten the original point of this thread and got down to the Basics of ATC. Namely ritual name calling/abuse and talking about doughnuts :cool: :cool:

Jay Foe - now you be nice to the guys at the Ice Station, you never know where you'll be a native in the future!!

J, hope you don't mind I'm going to post on your behalf! X, I think it's safe to say that neither J, nor myself are the kinds of people who would subject ourselves to the type of torture to which you are referring. You didn't have to go there you know! But just think about how little sunshine there is up there. Eurrgh! :D :D

Things are always worse than they seem!

whowhenwhy - an amusing last comment from one who posts from a somewhat remote place!! :p :p :p

(p.s. is the court case settled yet?)

X, after WWW was so eloquent in my defence, (cheers WWW ;) , and yes I did blatantly rip eloquent from your e-mail, :p ) I feel I should leap to his defence, don't know why just feel that some leaping is in order. X, Hope You're getting in lots of sun whilst you're down in here in civilisation, as up North it gets mighty dark :p . Anyway isn't it blatantly obvious where myself and WWW will be off next :rolleyes: :eek: :rolleyes: :eek:

x-yeah okay you got me. But at least I'm south of the border! :D
J-I was rather hoping that considering my next posting I may well escape that particular delight! I just thought it was interesting that on Tuesday night I was chatting to a rotor head down here and happened to mention that I thought a certain over-paid politician would soon have us winging our way east bound. And lo and behold what should happen on Wednesday but he suddenly thinks we can cope with sending a few thousand guys over. Has anyone been PWR'd yet J? Pass on my best to all the guys! :)

Things are always worse than they seem!

One last thing, X, thanks for asking. Prune-mail me your email address and I'll let you know what's going on. Tried to Prune-mail you and it didn't work. Hope to speak soon!!
:) :) :)

Things are always worse than they seem!

Looks like all of the talk about the 'nasty' places have scared off those johnny foreigners trying to hijack the thread. CSL is triumphant again :p :p

Jay Foe

Just waiting on the sidelines, swampy, just waiting on the sidelines.

Last one the Ice Station took over went to 10 pages, your poxy 3 does not impress. :p :p :p :p

Buzz,

Like you said - we're just waiting in the wings, biding our time and awaiting the right opportunity.

Sorry, did somebody say something? :D :D

Things are always worse than they seem!

Don't think so, perhaps the carrier pigeon is tired after flying all the way from sunny (?) Scotland :D :D

Caught three of them trying to escape today. Came down for a "liason" visit!!! :rolleyes: don't worry they didn't fool us. We soon sent them packing, apparently they even tried N*******ad, they really must be desperate :eek: :eek: :eek:

N*******ad? Urgh! They must have been desperate for company! J, nice to see you've torn yourself away to come and re-join the real world. Buzz, I'm sorry, you appear to be labouring under a mis-apprehension. We have not hijacked this thread, we are this thread. Joint EGYC,Nch approach room, together we stand, divided we fall and all that. Besides, as J has so kindly pointed out, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. I mean, visiting...sorry I can't bring myself to say it again it's so repugnant! :D
