Is it knackered?
What is it about Fiji?They seem to have a cycle of Coup D'etat; return of stable government enough that the new govt is internationally recognised; one person gaining too much loyalty/control over the military; Coup D'etat.
...I thought was very good - far more 'incoming' for our James to deal with, and he actually gets injured. There is one scene that really makes your eyese water, but I'll leave that to those who have not seen the film yet to discover...Easily the best...
Funny things moles.I wonder why a fur covered mammal lives entirely underground? If they were made for underground living, surely they would be hairless?I like them, although I'm not sure I've ever seen one.I'd like one for a pet.
Now no longer after wine sent to judges was found to be different from those sold to consumers. How rampant is this in the wine industry in NZ and the world for that matter? See: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sect..._id=1&ObjectID=10413 Also interesting comment at end of article: Mr Marris is the chief judge of both the Air New Zealand and Liquorland competitions. He has defended his wine, saying that while the batches were "technically different" they had a "flavour consistency" and consumers...

A Green Power Supply For Naim KitDear Friends,I am always one to consider an idea, and ponder it at length.A few years ago the wind-up transistor radio was ‘invented,’ which worked on a hand wound clockwork spring to provide the small...
So does this new digital rangefinder cut the mustard?And, if I know f**k all about digital cameras, what do I need to do to understand about 'raw' and 'JPEG'?What would I need to take and print photographs with this?Graham
Dear Friends, I think one can wonder where one is. The idea of the nuclear family with a bread-winner and a home-maker sounds frightfully old fashioned, now, doesn't it? In UK at least all too many girls want their cake [cooked for them] and eat it, and I wonder if this is good for any children that come of a mariage? My observation is certainly not. However, this may seem to put me into that group of neandethals who think that the little lady's place is chained to the sink and cooker. Not...

Earlier today as I was sitting in the dentist's chair having my tooth drilled by the HagBitch from Hell, without anaesthetic, I wondered if I could somehow transform the pain by imagining I was taking on the suffering of all beings in the hope of...
Dear All,I am currently home-demoing an old (1994 ish) NAC 82 from my local dealer, I love it. The price I have been quoted is £1400. I know that I can get a 2001 NAC 82 for five pounds less from another reputable dealer and could probably find...
