Eh???


Wot, like a France outfit? Or a Germany outfit?

Do you mean an "outfit from Belgium"???

Or perhaps, in the England(sic) language, "BelgIAN"

Oh dear!

I am trying to imagine the physical shape of the female flight attendants at an airline with the call sign Reubens. Slim and trim is not what I picture.

When one posts on PPRUNE one has the option to be notified of any further responses.

I decided a long time ago not to select that option, and in addition hardly ever re-visit anything I have posted on, so I won't see the drivel others post.

As long as any old common fungus has nothing better to do than commenting on my use of English (which btw is not my first language) I think I will leave that option selected as is.

Now go back to the environment you do best in, which is horse manure.
