reddan Posted November 6, 2010 Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 Right I need to apoligise, I have had a couple of beers and am home alone so my ranting on the state of the UK and what we do best will need to be inflicted of you lot. I have just finished watching a program on the second world war in which it stated that we were the best at electronics and invented the radar which gave us a considerable advantage and had the best fighter plane with the best engine (rolls) so commanded the skys. Strikes me that we have fallen behind in many repects, what so we do now that is world leading? Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Malt is good U.K. Normally I would be sampling a nice norfolk ale but tonight you are right I am mainly drinking mexican and french larger left over from a few summer parties. It may be UK but it still (in my opinion) tastes rank. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollie Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 T20 cricket Cricket yeh rite. In the T20 team was at least 3 South Africans (Kieswetter, Pietersen & Lumb I think) & 1 Irish Man (Morgan), all these guys were pivotal in the English success so don't give me that.
