  1. 25 years ago I was watching Ayrton Senna in what was to become his last grand prix. :(

  2. Impressive stuff watching the stages of the rocket landing on both land and a ship !

      Even more impressive if you watch the film the right way round, three rockets take off separately, join together in space then land as a single unit on a launchpad.

       

  3. RIP Shane Rimmer.

  10. My heart is very tender
    Though my parts are awful raw
    You might have been infected
    But you never were a bore
    I'm dying of your love my love
    I'm your spirochaetal clown
    I've left my body to science
    But I'm afraid they've turned it down.

    We all have our own ways of using the forum and we will have to get used to doing things slightly differently - it's called evolution. Give it a chance.

  22. Watching Hunted - a girl went to Fort William and as she was wandering around she went to a campsite, there were two signal finials at the door.

    1. Liam

      Liam

      I didn't notice that, but if I was her I'd get my skates on giving that the campsite owner admitted they had been in contact with the hunters! Great show nonetheless, would love to do it myself once I'm old enough.
