Politicians don’t seem to want to talk about the fact that we have around 10,000 of our armed forces fighting and dying in a pointless war in Afghanistan. I personally have not heard anything from them on the subject during the election campaign. Not a vote winner is it?

Just received this from our old Flt Cdr Stuart Musgrove:
Denis Healey, Jim Callaghan, etc. The whole of the Labour Party leaders were there .. (and all the socialists from other parts of the world..). Everyone laughing, happy, and casually but expensively dressed.

If all else fails - read the instructions!
Having recently got a new VW Golf, on opening the bonnet we found an interesting sticker on the air filter. Somebody somewhere has an excellent sense of humour. May they live long and prosper!
