Hi Candice, welcome aboard. I'm over in Perth and HoH.

He did very well to live that long. To survive two weeks on the run whilst being hunted by every man and his dog is no mean feat. If I was him I would have saved a bullet for myself. I expect he'll get life imprisonment or the chair - and rightly so.

"Starship Troopers" by Robert Heinlein. Not so much a Military Sci-Fi Novel, more a collection of dialogues on the nature of warfare. People comment on its fascist leanings, but I think if you've served or been part of the military machine you'll understand.

Over here Down Under in Western Australia, we successfully voted against Daylight Saving some years ago. All this means is that we get to say " Faaark its hot" at 6am instead of 7am :)

Car Dealers annoy me sometimes, especially New Car ones. My Wife bought a 2015 Suzuki Swift GL last week, and the hassle we had collecting it was terrible. We don't blame the Salesman for trying to sell us all the optional extras under the sun - after all his commission on a base-model car...

I am a British Citizen. I am 1/2 English, 1/4 Republican Irish, and 1/4 Indian Punjabi Sikh Yes, that could make me pretty much anything, but I am English, in my heart and in my soul. We fought the Argentines over the Falklands Islands because they, as British Citizens requested our help...

I'd like to see this. Although I think a lot of the jokes in the 1st film would have worked alot better if it was a cartoon though.. But much points for recognition of Flash Gordon!

This chap wasn't even a Soldier. He was a british volunteer aid worker delivering supplies along with his muslim companions. I've worked as a defence contractor in the past, and I know what risks people take, but no-one deserves this. Even Al-Qaeda wants nothing to do with ISIS...... I...

1,000GB a month???!!!! Wow.... I can only dream of that! I get 20gb a month on wireless internet (A$80), and my phone has 8gb. I'll move to a fixed landline soon... What I'd do with 1,000gb a month :)

Agree with whats been said. Our greyhound came from a trainer at 3 months old with a broken leg - unsuitable for racing, wanted her PST, 2 months later We adopted her and at 15 months old, to see her run, you'd never know! In the past I'd never minded Greyhound racing, but now I know how...

Thanks folks! Well I finished yesterday, and today went for a drive over to my new place to have a look round and meet everyone before I start on Monday. I shouldnt have any issues doing the job, I've got a good chap working for me (plus another chap who is frankly an ar%ehole -according to...

That's fair enough. I can't really fault the Authorities for that.

Hi Folks, A bit of an update here... I've decided to quit working for this Company From Hell. Management are very surprised I'm leaving, but since I'm going to work for their main competitor, for more money than I'm on at present, and i'll working alongside a group of people who i've known...

I've got the Frostfall-Hypothermia mod installed as well. It totally changes the game.....finally I've got a use for Fur armour :)

Very sad. I cannot understand why their 2 children were taken into care.......there must be more to this story.

There's always been thousands of mods for Skyrim ( and Oblivion & Morrowind for that matter ), I've yet to try SKYUI yet, but might give it a go soon. I can't wait for them to finish Skywind, but it's a massive massive project. I loved playing Morrowind, cos unlike the later ES games it...

They forgot Manual Windows!...and Non-Power Steering, and drum brakes..... ( I don't miss drum brakes, I used to have them on my old Landrover, andwhen they were warm, and I was towing of had a full load, you had to plan ahead when you really wanted to stop!

Hi MeeganB I'm also in Oz, though in Perth. I have moderate/Severe loss ( Started losing my hearing in 2008, but it didn't get to be a real problem until 2011), and started wearing HA's about a year and a half ago. I'm still getting used to them although it takes time. There's lots of...

I watched "The Raid 2" on DVD last night, Really good film, but some of the violence was absolutely brutal. I don't mind a good Martial-Arts film, but some scenes in the film surprised even me..

Most of Clive Barkers work is excellent. I'm reading "Soldiers of Fortune" by Tony Geraghty. It's about the rise of the paid Mercenary into the role of the "deniable" Private Security Operative as used by organisations such as Halliburton, Blackwater, SERCO etc....very very interesting if...
