Remember boys and girls all take Arab armies as that really upsets US border control
We have a wonderful country, with all sorts of great things going for it. Too numerous to list here.
Unfortunately, the people in charge have a tendency to take themselves
very seriously on occasion.
We are assured that it is all for the best, however.

The Arab world are our friends now under Obama's leadership. The war on terror has been downgraded to a "enduring struggle against terrorism and extremism."

Oh no lie, like that
business where Dunkin Donuts pulled the Rachael Ray ads because
some right-wing bloggers were saying that her scarf looked like a keffiyeh
Yes, I'm serious.
And more recently,
some paranoids are claiming that a talking doll
made in the USA contains
hidden islamic messages.
Once again, yes, I'm serious.
Sigh.

I preferred it when it was referred to as "The War Against Terror" - but then the powers that be realised that the acronym might reflect badly on them ...

I am glad to hear it, Andy. If you make it you will have a great time. Especially if you are drinking for two.

No, no. We are all so impressed by the example that Jim Hauber has set that we plan to be loaded for the entire event. Poor Hammy will end up going 0-6.

You will see the list checker's address go active this week. You can send in excel if you use the one off this website. Or any clear format.

Chicks.
Or perhaps it's because she is bringing Norse Irish and needs extra room for 120 bases of MF, average, unprotected, undrilled, heavy weapon?

Congratulations to you, sir. And Nik is now on double secret probation.

WHAT? Nik is on secret double penetration? Can you please clarify.
I think I am either due to arrive an hour earlier or later than Nik, just in a different airport. So will probably arrive at the billett a few hours before Nik.
