Back in the day I was quite into flightsims; FS2002 & CFS2 with my trusty Microsoft FF2 joystick. :triumphant:
That went by the wayside, until today when I picked up a copy of FSX Delux Edition...

I suppose it's a fact of all being 'one community'. Sort of like folk from the sink estates walking along the posh streets and sitting on the nice park benches.
Unfortunately (?) the EU isn't...
Not being picked up in Britain (as yet) but since we aren't 'Schengen' either it wouldn't be seen as important.
I'd find it surprising though... I was under the impression that Romania had...
A sneak peek in the ballot boxes shows a surprise result!!!

Argentina dismisses this referendum since the voters are all immigrants or the descendants thereof.
Seems a bit strange coming from the Argentine Government which seems to carry a preponderance of...
The Vauxhall Ampera / Chevrolet Volt seem to be the most promising.
Yet I think I'll wait for a diesel-electric. I assume that when the internal combustion engine does kick in it runs at a...
Perhaps it doesn't‽
I remember driving while disqualified being treated as contempt of court, with the accused held in custody until court appearance on next lawful day and their car 'seized as...
I can't help thinking that perhaps bank bonuses (indeed all bonuses) should be paid as a share of profits?
Perhaps we could also have a wage claw-back in the event of a bank posting a loss?

Perhaps they'll remaster the first films:
