    Polished leather steering wheel? Try cleaning with a ‘magic cleaning pad/eraser’ then leather nourish. Results are amazing!

      … sue the EU - at the same time as negotiating with them.

       

      Yes. Right. That should work.

       

      Anyway, where could they be sued?

       

      * A UK court? They wouldn't recognize it as having any authority - so enforcing any judgment could be interesting.

       

      * The European Court? Isn't that an EU outfit? Good luck trying to get a judgment against the EU there!

      Filton featured in Great British Railways tonight, but history jumped from WW1 Bristol Fighter, to Concord. No mention of the many groundbreaking planes in between. What about Brabazon!! Bristol pair comment purely fatuous!

      Oh I see, I've only just watched 'Rosyth No. 1' in action at Blaenavon.

      FWIW I think that the contemporary crews rated the Beaufort ahead of the Blenheim. I would strongly recommend "Coastal Command" from Amazon
