Afghanistan : A Look Around Camp Bastion.
The Apache looked to only have 2 Hellfires inboard of the rocket pods! Was that a mission load or are the troops short of kit?
News.....
Fuel strike: One in four forecourts running dry. How many people will bunk of work with the following: Sorry boss cannot make it to work today 'cos I haven't got any petrol!!!
Iran softens nuclear programme stance. No they are not. They are playing for time. They have done this before.
Offenders must get 'badges of shame'. Not quite a chain gang but a start.
Afghanistan threatens 'self defence' raids into Pakistan. The only way we can destroy the Taleban is to hitthem 'at home' and i that means hitting Pakistan so be it. Pakistan has had 7 years to do something and they haven't.
Golf club introduces buggies with sat-nav for players lacking direction. Doesn't say a lot for the intelligence of the population of Solihull!
Britain leads call for Zimbabwe sanctions to punish Mugabe for stealing election. Sanctions wont work. Only military force will do.
Iran and North Korea may have bought nuclear missile blueprints. I wouldn't bet against Iran already having 1 nuke. Trouble is one is no good because they will have to detonate it to prove they have one that works and then 'they have none' and become a really big target. When they get two or three we have a problem.
First Zimbabwe's townships, now suburbia must learn to fear the mob. My God. Zanu PF are starting to act like the Democrats!!

New Treatment For Sunburn
A guy fell asleep on the beach for several hours and got horrible sunburn, specifically to his upper legs.He went to the hospital, and was promptly admitted after being diagnosed with second-degree burns.With his skin already starting to blister, and the severe pain he was in, the doctor prescribed continuous intravenous feeding with saline, electrolytes, a sedative, and a Viagra pill every four hours.
The nurse, who was rather astounded, asked, 'What good will Viagra do for him, Doctor'?
The doctor replied, 'It won't do anything for his condition, but it'll keep the sheets off his legs.'

The Sunday Best....
Revealed: Fuel strike leader earns thousands more than his union members ... and he'll be on £50,000 if they win. Typical greedy socialist. The tanker drivers are getting no sympathy here.
One of Britain's top soldiers wounded during firefight with Taliban. Leading from the front.
Dogs of war: After four years in jail Britain's most famous soldier of fortune prepares to stand trial for plotting to overthrow Equatorial Guinea government. It will be interesting to see if anything new comes to light. I doubt it.
Iran rejects nuclear offer from Western powers. The longer we procrastinate the closer Iran gets to getting nukes.
MoD has £3.5bn 'hidden' debt, says Liam Fox. Only 3.5 billion. Considering that the defence budget needs to be doubled, it is nothing. I don't trust the Tories to be any better on defence than Labour.
Robert Mugabe threatens war on opponents as wife Grace joins battle over election. There is going to be a war either way. We will sit back and do nothing as per usual. Am I the only person who would like to see Mugabe and his wife 'thrown to the mob'.
Get Osama Bin Laden before I leave office, orders George W Bush. Bin Laden, Al Sadr, Imadinnerjacket, Chavez, Mugabe the list goes on. Dubya should nail the lot before he goes, it is hardly going to lower his ratings.
Second batch of secret papers found on train. The civil service seem to have embraced the Freedom of Information Act with a little more enthusiasm than necessary.
‘Vultures’ expose corruption. African politicians an corruption are inseparable.
and the Clarkypoos bit.
Swim with sharks — it’s easy money. Or how to con the press.

An Affair With a Cause
An elderly couple were having dinner one evening when the husband reached across the table, took his wife's hand in his and said, "Martha ... soon we will have been married for 50 years, and there's something I have to know. In all of these 50 years have you ever been unfaithful to me?"
Martha replied, "Well Henry, I have to be honest with you. Yes, I've been unfaithful to you on three occasions during these 50 years, but always for a good reason."
Henry was obviously hurt by his wife's confession, but said, "I never suspected. Can you tell me what you mean by good reasons?"
Martha said, "The first time was shortly after we were married, and we were about to lose our little house, because we couldn't pay the mortgage. Do you remember that one evening I went to see the banker and the next day he notified you that the loan would be extended?"
Henry recalled the visit to the banker and said, "I can forgive you for that. You saved our home. But, what about the second time?"
Martha asked, "And do you remember when you were so sick, but we didn't have the money to pay for the heart surgery you needed? Well, I went to see your doctor one night, and, if you recall, he did the surgery at no charge."
"I recall that," said Henry "and, you did it to save my life. So, of course, I can forgive you for that. Now, tell me about the third occasion."
"Alright," Martha said, "do you remember when you ran for president of your golf club and you needed 73 more votes?"
