Okay, I will be honest here and say that me 'n my mates are just back from
the pub, much, much worse for wear, and are heading out to a night club in a
mo, one of us has just gone to the bog to feel unwell.

Okay, here we go.

That was a good video... BUT, and this is a big, big but...

Bloody 'ell man, do you know what you know what you ARE DOING?!!!? Some one
could have been killed or EVEN WORSE!  I know I saw a car, you're bound to
hit it, maybe even with your PLANE!!!  If that potential DEATH TRAP even
came close to the ground, it would take out ALL OF NORTHEN EUROPE, even the
good bits like Prancers Niteclub (see above) and WHERE WOULD YOU BE THEN?
(No, not without a nightclub, that is not even funny)  As the whole
continent descends into the magma slag, would the insurance cover you, I
don't think so.  I descended into a magma slag once and my insurance would
not even go half-way to covering the cost of that escapade.  (Bloody bupa)

There were two other people in the video, I don't know how you did it
without hitting them or killing them or something else that is also quite
bad.  You could have even taken out that Cortina in the corner of the
picture.   An impact with that would have KNOCKED it to Chezk.  And that guy
trying to EAT his plane, is that funny?  Someone could have been KILLED.

JUST THINK will you before flying your POTENTIAL DEATH TRAP anywhere near
anything, anytime, ever.  And when I say near, I mean like 75 miles, maybe
even 76.  If you're going to fly your POTENTIAL DEATH TRAP, do it somewhere
safe like the middle of the Sahara, or other places where nobody goes, like
the Millenium Dome or Milwaukee Deep.

Okay, the heaving has abated next door so I think we're on our way again.
Good bye and good night.

PS I am anticipating a sense of humour failure somewhere on the internet.  I
was once told,never send an email when you drunk, and that was by a guy that
received one of them (he still talks to me buy his mistress doesn't, I wish
it was the other way around).  Nevere mind, Flame proof suit on.

LOL! Just make sure you don't fall into the magma slag when you're drunk -
it's an easy mistake to make!

I know the video was irresposible.  To get to the site, I even drove a car
weighing close to a TONNE at 70MPH on a road where OTHER CARS were!  How mad
am I?  A NUTTER!  And guess what?  Sometimes other cars were driving in the
OPPOSITE DIRECTION to me at a similar speed with only a couple of feet
seperating up from collision!  That's a combined speed of 140MPH!!! WHAT AM
I LIKE?  I'M A LUNATIC!!!  I must think I'm in the Red Arrows or summit!
I'm a NUTTER.

Indeed.  Yes.  We know.

This newsgroup is full of lethal nutters! I thank God that I am the one.....
who flies safely     I never did a low pass in my life. And never made it
back to Terra Firma (or landed!)

Hope you had a nice time at t' pub!

Allan

Yes, thank you, I did have a very nice time at the pub, and also
subsequently at the nightclub.  We were belatedly celebrating my temporary
departure from gainful employment after 17 years with The Company, the first
15 of which were quite rewarding.  I'm glad to have left on my terms;
sometimes you've just got to say enough's enough.

Now, I'm not going to deny writing my previous missive.  Not at all.
However, when I got to the bit about never sending emails (and newsgroup
postings) after gratuitous alcohol consumption, I had the good sense to take
my own advice and hit delete, much to the manifest disappointment of the
various ne’er-do-wells looking over my shoulder who had particularly
appreciated the "magma slag" reference, and felt that everyone else would as
well.  After retrieving my posting from the "deleted items" folder while I
was inspecting the room next door for... ah... signs of deterioration as
mentioned in the post, they helpfully clicked the send button.  (Cheers
lads, but you weren't switched on enough to cross-post it, were you?  Aye, I
suppose none of us were at that point.)

Anyway, I guess that maybe they were right!

...and it really was a cool video.  “Not blistering fast?"  It is when
compared to Gentle Ladies and GWS foamies!
