    If they should once obtain a connivance, they will press for a toleration, from thence to an equality, from an equality to a superiority, from a superiority to an extirpation of all contrary religions. John Pym 1584-1643.

    I reserve the right to say what the fcuk I like. The serried ranks of headstones in Flanders, Normandy and elsewhere give me that right.

    Interesting plane, a half scale Stirling.

    Yeah, I saw it on a Wartime Digs show on the box apparently it was flown in a prone position! I was amazed to hear there were Stirlings left.
