A police motorcycle officer stops a driver for shooting through a red light. The driver is a real bar steward, steps out of his car and comes striding toward the officer, demanding to know why he is being harassed by the Gestapo! So the officer calmly tells him of the red light violation. The motorist instantly goes on a tirade, questioning the officer's ancestry, sexual orientation, etc., in rather explicit offensive terms. The tirade goes on without the officer saying a dickybird. When the officer finishes writing the ticket he puts an "AH" in the lower right corner of the narrative portion of the ticket. He then hands it to the 'violator' for his signature. The bloke signs the ticket angrily, and when presented with his copy points to the "AH" and demands to know what it stands for. The officer says, "That's so when we go to court, I'll remember that you're an arsehole." Two months later they're in court. The 'violator' has a bad driving record and he has a heap of points and is in danger of losing his licence, so he hired a barrister to represent him. On the stand the officer testifies to seeing the man run through the red light. Under cross examination the barrister for the defence asks; "Officer is this a reasonable facsimile of the ticket that you issued to my client?" The police officer replies: "Yes, sir, that is the defendant's copy, his signature and mine, same number at the top." "Officer, is there any particular marking or notation on this ticket you don't normally make?" "Yes, sir, in the lower right corner of the narrative there is an "AH," underlined." "What does the "AH" stand for, officer?" "Aggressive and hostile, Sir." "Aggressive and hostile?" "Yes, Sir.” "Officer, are you sure it doesn't stand for arsehole?" “Well, sir, you know your client better than I do.”

The date of her funeral was not immediately known, but Willmot said air force personnel would attend, and the RAF Association would provide a bugler and a Union Jack to drape on the coffin "It will be a real send-off for her," Willmot said. Nice send off for her family. Rest in Peace Flo

Nice touch m8

I think I would need to be Belgian to fly one

Heard a wonderful story from the annals of WW2 on cable today. A woman, who worked in a Nottingham Parachute Factory during the last war, used to take home off cuts of silk, that were too small, and therefore no use to anybody. She was a seamstress by trade before the war, and used to make Ladies undergarments. She used to make Knickers for her friends in her spare time, and enjoyed embroidery as well. Apparently, she would embroider a picture of a Heinkel or ME 109 on the knickers, with some wording which said.... "These go down without a fight" Cracked me up

Fantastic News!...I remember mentioning this many moons ago!...probably Phase 1 Jeez!...I'm SO looking forward to this, I'm surprised my head doesnt drop off!!!

Indeed!... Cliffs of Dover is a case in point

It's a shame that the former USSR was so paranoid about the West..that it's leaders chose to treat the population like animals, and spend all their money on (admitedly) superb, but generally useless hardware

One of my favourites...thanks to Hauksbee for sending this to me!

Seen it...and read the book. Brilliant

I think PTSD is a new thing. I don't believe that Roman Soldiers suffered from it...I don't think people in the Eastern Parts of the World suffer particularly from it either. I think it's a Western thing....Due to how we have developed here. Taliban fighters for instance...it's like a great thing to die in combat..they truly believe that will go with them in the afterlife. The Less we believe in that sort of stuff in the West...the more likely we are to feel bad about bombing the s**t out of perople Just my take on it
