    Speaking of dragons, could I just borrow a few? I have a target in Berlin that needs to be taken out. Seriously, fuming over here.

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    Putting aside the steam that's coming out of my ears for a moment, what did you watch? As someone who spent the first nine years of my life just a nuke's throw away from the Iron Curtain, I have a pretty big interest in all things Cold War related.

    Does it appear that the US, China, and Russia may reconvene Cold War II? Dwight "Ike" Eisenhower cautioned the citizens of the US about the financial incentives and lobby power of the US Military Industrial Complex for such things. Although these citizens didn't listen to Ike when Ronnie Raygun pushed the USSR (CCCP) during Cold War I. Doubling the US federal deficit. Where are we going? In circles. Dances. :D

    I'm absolutely sh1te at DIY. A few years ago I tried to paint our front door. I thought just slap the paint on, but nope Mrs reminded me to put it on gently, let it dry and then a second coat. My end result had to be sanded and stripped as it looked like soup running down the door.:D

    Power cut here. Apparently, power eont be restored till 1.45 and Grumpy can't go to bed without a light in his room. The house is full of candles and a match or a lighter to light them with.

    Ha, its just come back on!

    He needs a light in his room cos he has to get up a few times a night to answer nature's call.

    Every friggin alarm in the neighborhood is blaring away.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional West Moderators Posts: 62,362 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gremlinertia


    Hope the house alarms are all quiet soon.. Irritating noise when you know it's because of the powercut

    Ah okay. Considering that I lived in Deutschland in '89, I'll give that a pass ;)

    I remember having to do the odd air raid drill when I was in primary school, when everyone was led down into the basement of the school. Looking back, that would have been pretty useless, but it was just part of life back then. As were the jets that regularly flew over our village at treetop height during the regular exercises, or the army convoys that clogged up the streets, or indeed the stash of canned food, water, fuel, camping stove, pots and cutlery that my dad kept in the basement. Seems pretty wild when you look back at the whole situation.

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    It is amazing to think how close some of our history is, if that doesn't sound too stupid :o
