Hey no delusions buddy, hard fact, our pioneering spirit had us rule most of the world and we started the Industrial Revolution, with great engineering and invention. However our socialist utopia now has us terrified of our own shadows, everything you say is now offensive to some minority, freedoms have long gone and the sad thing is that people are totally unaware of it and think it normal. We are ripe for the picking, no one ever learns through history, these are facts you can check, the Royal Navy the most powerful in the world for centuries does not have enough men to man what few vessels remain nor enough money to put to sea more than a few weeks a year. We put so called refugees in better housing than we do our troops, god forbid they kill someone as they will end up in court, we currently have two policeman on murder charges for using their tasers when on duty etc etc etc. The following old joke sums up the current situation perfectly, you all keep a bed for me over there, I may yet need it in my lifetime. Nelson: "Order the signal, Hardy." Hardy: "Aye, aye sir." Nelson: "Hold on, that's not what I dictated to Flags. What's the meaning of this?" Hardy: "Sorry sir?" Nelson (reading aloud): "' England expects every person to do his or her duty, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religious persuasion or disability.' - What gobbledegook is this?" Hardy: "Admiralty policy, I'm afraid, sir. We're an equal opportunities employer now. We had the devil's own job getting ' England ' past the censors, lest it be considered racist." Nelson: "Gadzooks, Hardy. Hand me my pipe and tobacco." Hardy: "Sorry sir. All naval vessels have now been designated smoke-free working environments." Nelson: "In that case, break open the rum ration. Let us splice the mainbrace to steel the men before battle." Hardy: "The rum ration has been abolished, Admiral. Its part of the Government's policy on binge drinking." Nelson: "Good heavens, Hardy. I suppose we'd better get on with it ........... full speed ahead." Hardy: "I think you'll find that there's a 4 knot speed limit in this stretch of water." Nelson: "Damn it man! We are on the eve of the greatest sea battle in history. We must advance with all dispatch. Report from the crow's nest please." Hardy: "That won't be possible, sir." Nelson: "What?" Hardy: "Health and Safety have closed the crow's nest, sir. No harness; and they said that rope ladders don't meet regulations. They won't let anyone up there until a proper scaffolding can be erected." Nelson: "Then get me the ship's carpenter without delay, Hardy." Hardy: "He's busy knocking up a wheelchair access to the foredeck Admiral." Nelson: "Wheelchair access? I've never heard anything so absurd." Hardy: "Health and safety again, sir. We have to provide a barrier-free environment for the differently abled." Nelson: "Differently abled? I've only one arm and one eye and I refuse even to hear mention of the word. I didn't rise to the rank of admiral by playing the disability card." Hardy: "Actually, sir, you did. The Royal Navy is under represented in the areas of visual impairment and limb deficiency." Nelson: "Whatever next? Give me full sail. The salt spray beckons." Hardy: "A couple of problems there too, sir. Health and safety won't let the crew up the rigging without hard hats. And they don't want anyone breathing in too much salt - haven't you seen the adverts?" Nelson: "I've never heard such infamy. Break out the cannon and tell the men to stand by to engage the enemy." Hardy: "The men are a bit worried about shooting at anyone, Admiral." Nelson: "What? This is mutiny!" Hardy: "It's not that, sir. It's just that they're afraid of being charged with murder if they actually kill anyone. There's a couple of legal-aid lawyers on board, watching everyone like hawks." Nelson: "Then how are we to sink the Frenchies and the Spanish?" Hardy: "Actually, sir, we're not." Nelson: "We're not?" Hardy: "No, sir. The French and the Spanish are our European partners now. According to the Common Fisheries Policy, we shouldn't even be in this stretch of water. We could get hit with a claim for compensation." Nelson: "But you must hate a Frenchman as you hate the devil." Hardy: "I wouldn't let the ship's diversity co-ordinator hear you saying that sir. You'll be up on disciplinary report." Nelson: "You must consider every man an enemy, who speaks ill of your King." Hardy: "Not any more, sir. We must be inclusive in this multicultural age. Now put on your Kevlar vest; it's the rules. It could save your life" Nelson: "Don't tell me - health and safety. Whatever happened to rum, sodomy and the lash?" Hardy: As I explained, sir, rum is off the menu! And there's a ban on corporal punishment." Nelson: "What about sodomy?" Hardy: "I believe that is now legal, sir." Nelson: "In that case............................... kiss me, Hardy."

I still think imperial, makes more sense to me as metric units are either too big or too small for practical purposes, only better bit is money, never liked groats and florins.

I've only been once but it's one of the best experiences ever because you can mix with the stars n their cars (Pink Floyd etc), see cars you'll never see again, and watch some great racing, If you did go you could also take in the Motor Museums . I've been to the revival twice because I worked down there but the festival of speed is more for you.

Wow, missing for eight years ? ask Santa for a satnav, was it an alien abduction, and were you probed ? we love mysteries here.

Yes, I remember Sweden swapping from left to right, about one third of the world drives on the left, before satnav I used to struggle when swapping. We have loads of accidents with tourists forgetting, and I remember one night heading the wrong way near Schipol it ain't easy when you first change.

@ANGU5 your dream holiday next year for the ultimate petrolheads, early july the Goodwood festival of speed, followed by a tour of one of the f1 factories then the British round a Silverstone mid July. Can fit it all in around a fortnight but you must book everything now. All near each other and you can stay near Silverstone. Don't forget to drive on the right side, the left

Ah, how strange is life, not so long ago certain people hated sniper maps, then they discovered they are good at them, now they want them constantly, I love humans.

You are right in one way, the crowds are there, but to survive there must be cars to race and if you compare it to the past, and other racing, there are pitifully few cars. In fact if the teams were only allowed one car it would not be a great spectacle at all. The costs are simply too great for most manufacturers, when the likes of Honda and Ford do not field teams it is not good for the sport. Although it is and always was the forerunner for technology I hope that is not it's downfall. In my opinion the 'gadgets' need removing to make the drivers more competitive, my favourite car racing is also the British touring cars, really exciting because the drivers not the cars are the stars. It may surprise you that I like Nascar too, I even went to one, those drivers rock. Just checked, the last full grid in F1 (26 cars) was in 1995, that is not good

Wow buddy you're nearly as old as @HarryWeezer, ps notice you avoided the subject, if she mentions rings ffs run otherwise it's over

Well done WP

My buddy @AyaqGuyaq has me worried, I feared this when he moved to the ' lower 49', he's used to rough action, wrestling bears, hunting seals etc and of course probably longs for his beloved moose. He is too quiet lately, I fear the most dangerous of all animals has stalked and trapped him - a woman ! it has all the signs, fleeting visits to the forum while he hurries back to the clutches of his tormentor, plying him with kisses and cooking. Swapping his sled for some form of transport called an uber was the beginning of the end, next it's a slippery slope to after shave and manicures, the guns will go, replaced by a vacuum cleaner, and the biggest adventure will be Walmart. Snap out of it buddy, you don't realise the long term effects on your health and bank balance.

Wow that little dog is so cute, are those two gimp masks hanging next to the door ???

Could we have a jealous emoticon for all these cars and computers ? I feel like a third world country lol

I agree, some good maps not played for a long time, thanks WP & Loco.

You're special Rugger, most burglars take the tv ?

Have a great day MrCrowe

Thank you for this fantastic set of maps, I haven't heard one person bitch this week, no screams of hackers, not one go to spec, no one demanding a map vote, everyone enjoying themselves laughing and cracking jokes, it's a dream. Shit it is - I just woke up Oh well back to normal

Wow, you Texans are something else, you hunt cattle on public highways using google to locate them ? we keep ours in fields.

Buddy, throwing the sheets off in a morning and running for the bus doesn't count?

Happy birthday lovely lady, did Ripper send a card??

You're a lovely lad, never mind what the others say, I might look at that

That is true and I have always built and upgraded my own systems, in fact the present case has been upgraded twice, and Sharpe has me looking now at prices. But you all know what it's like, you always want the best parts and the best bang for your bucks. So looking at what I need it will be a new operating system, motherboard and cpu, graphics card, new ssd, memory and it makes sense to put in a new power supply. First try at what I'd like got to £2600 which is out of the question on a pension, Unless you post me two pizzas a week for the next two years? So I went back to the drawing board and thought about it. Ideally I would like to play the new modern warfare, but I am quite happy as long as waw and 4 are played on our servers. I enjoy the company of my fellow idiots and regular players, love the banter, and can generally hold my own in games. So at the moment my present set up is not great but it's adequate, what I need is a bigger screen, my eyesight is getting worse and I have people screaming at me about targets and I can't see them. So I have given big hints for Christmas for 24 inches, my old girl fainted until I explained. ps I looked at the stats tonight for ftag and my life is complete, I'm in the experts league, near the bottom but wtf?, I will have an extra Drambuie tonight and thank you all for donating your lives for my stats.

Lucky I wasn't playing for you then ?

The modern, as we now know it, formula one did indeed start in England with the first event being run at Silverstone, and the vast majority of teams are based there, in the Oxfordshire area mainly. Its forerunner was the European grand prix that blossomed after the second world war, but Bernie Ecclestone is credited into making it the sport you see today. I have been a lifelong motorsports fan but modern formula one racing is in my opinion boring, if you want to see excitement with real danger, and close racing, go to one of the Irish motorcycle road racing events, held on public roads, those boys and girls rock. Formula one nearly died out in the early 60's and it is sad to see it going the same way, look at how few teams compete now with astronomical costs. I just remember the early Ecclestone days in my teens and the struggles he had to introduce commercialism, which saved the sport in reality. They need to get more teams involved now before fossil fuelled sport dies a natural death in years to come.
