Mmm. It seems that politics, like water, has a way of seeping into the cracks.

Only because I am on leave at the moment. I'm at the moment in Berlin, where I'll shortly be meeting a certain person who is no stranger to anyone here, but I've spent most of the last week in Leipzig where Internet service was very patchy, or in transit.
So, obviously I agree with what Sir Miles said above. This isn't a political thread.

Re: Random Chat!!! (All Welcome!)

Watching the older James Bond films, I have developed an admiration for Lois Maxwell (I choose my words carefully!) Apart from being a beautiful woman, I think she is the best Moneypenny  of the whole film series.

Re: Random Chat!!! (All Welcome!)

I was googling for a movie poster and I happened to find a very striking and evocative propaganda poster from WWII. As a rule propaganda posters from nazi Germany are best avoided, but this one has no ideological content at all so I think it's okay this time.

"Pst! - the enemy is listening"

It translates as 'The Enemy is Listening' according to Google Translate. That quisling Number 24 wouldn't have wanted us to know that, however!   ajb007/biggrin   ajb007/wink

Re: Random Chat!!! (All Welcome!)

Having prorogued the UK British Politics thread without prior consultation, 'Barbel' Johnson today promised an array of goodies in the Queen's Speech, including a special preview showing for all ajb members of No Time To Die, before even Babs and Mickey get to see the final cut, with better action scenes than would be available for any non-ajb members, plus a chance to shag a leading actress of your choice (or Danny Craig, as tastes require.)

After that, Barbel will be taking the Bond franchise back to the early 1970s Bond era, such as DAF and TMWTGG, with safari suits, flares, glam rock and the three-day week.

Re: Random Chat!!! (All Welcome!)

Watching TSWLM last night to celebrate the Birthday of Sir Roger, I noticed how
it showed the average British sailor spending his time. Drinking tea, playing chess
and looking at many hardcore porn magazines ... how 1970s ! ..... I'm
sure many sailors today would drink coffee  ajb007/wink
