So, if wearing civvy shorts and sunglasses while on 2nd standby RS60, do we still have to ignore US CW2s? Can anyone planning to leave ISK in the next 10 minutes please provide the answer, if not too involved with getting the Grob up the stairs into the dining-in night. Please.

Now you are just being silly.

Will you grovel in accepting my opinion, or must I insult you personally, and everybody who works on the aircrft i think you fly but inf act you don't?




uncapiltalised "i" left in so you have a target for an incoherent rant as alternative to reason.

D'you know, I'm really not sure, I am actually starting to see the benefits of gas barbeques. New Labour wasn't such a bad idea was it? Gok Wan, now there's a lovely name. My new car isn't pink, its cerise. Got some tickets for the forthcoming Village People concert. Nowadays, half a pint of Stella is all I can manage. Movers, lovely people, eh.

I've got my Viagra, now where's the muscle relaxant gel ......

&*^%$£!!!? Phew, blimey - what happened there %$^%&*&^??

Gas is still definitely GAY

I’d like to take you to task over your last statement actually Wader2, I think you’ll find (whilst pushing glasses up nose …) that your statistic is indeed out of date, misleading, totally stupid and should be removed from this forum before offending everyone on the planet. The stats are: 29 posts in 1 hour and 23 minutes if you’d like to check your facts - stupid - idiot - rubbish ……

Stbd Beam I take exception to that post.

When I was . . .

but then it was always Port Beam or indeed off beam but I think this is now well and truly off thread . . .

anyway I think on average 99% of what you said was made up on the spot.
