    Watch the one on the air traffic controllers at Gander who had to land nearly 250 wide bodied jets who were transatlantic (and past the point of no return) when the US closed its borders. Amazing job!! I was fascinated.
    The whole thing brings back so many memories - my daughter had just joined me in NY the week before on a temporary assignment with my company, so she had a rude awakening! She sent me a copy of a talk she gave to her 6th formers (she works at a school nr Reading) a couple of years ago where she highlighted her experience.
    It was good to read it and reminisce - an awful lot of people who I used to travel in with on the train worked at the WTC :emoticon-0106-cryin

    A man was having problems with premature ejaculation so he decided to
    go to the doctor. He asked the doctor what he could do to cure his
    problem. In response, the doctor said, "When you feel like you are getting
    ready to ejaculate, try startling yourself."

    That same day the man went to the store and bought himself a starter
    pistol. All excited to try this suggestion, he ran home to his
    wife. At home, he found his wife was in bed, naked and waiting. As the two
    began, they found themselves in the 69 position. The man, moments
    later, felt the sudden urge to ejaculate and fired the starter pistol.

    The next day, the man went back to the doctor. The doctor asked,
    "How did it go?" The man answered, "Not that well... when I fired
    the pistol, my wife shat on my face, bit 3 inches off my penis and my
    neighbour came out of the closet with his hands in the air!"

    A woman goes to the Doctors and said that herself and her husband are bored with their sex lives and had tried everything they could think of and was wondering if he had any ideas on how to spice up their sex lives? The Doctor replied Have you tried nasal sex? What's that? replied the woman. The Doctor said Get your husband to stick his penis up your nose. The woman thanks the Doctor and said We will give it a go. The following day she visits the Doctor again and she said Can you get pregnant from nasal sex? No the Doctor replied. The woman sniffs and said Thank god for that

    Ole and Sven were playing golf when Sven pulled out a cigar but didn't have a lighter so he asked Ole for a light.

    "Ya, shure, I tink I haff a lighter," he replied and reached into his golf bag and pulled out a 12-inch BIC lighter.

    "Yiminy Cricket!" exclaimed Sven, "Vhere did yew get dat monster??"

    "Vell," replied Ole, "I got it from my Genie."

    "You haff a genie?" Sven asked.

    "Ya, shure, he's right here in my golf bag," said Ole.

    "Could I see him?" Ole opens his golf bag and out pops the genie.

    The friend says, "Hey dere! I'm a good friend of your master. Vill you grant me vun vish?"

    "Yes I will," the genie said so Sven asks him for a million bucks and the genie hops back into the golfbag and leaves him standing there waiting for his million bucks.

    Suddenly the sky begins to darken and the sound of a million ducks flying overhead is heard. Sven yells to Ole, "I asked for a million Bucks, not Ducks!"

    Ole answers, "Ya, I forgot to tell yew, da genie is hard of hearing.
    Do yew really tink I asked him for a 12-inch BIC?"

    Hi I wonder if any of my friends can help me trace a family that I knew from Seaton, Devon. They were fishermen/women and went by the surname of Mr & Mrs Biggens-Lately, in particular I am trying to locate their daughter Courtney, any help you can give would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I am watching on ITV the 9/11 attack on America program. Actual footage in the timeline of 9/11. Horrific. I remember it like yesterday and I am actually shaking watching it. Totally horrific even 20 years later.

    It is horrific but I am glad it is being shown, possibly for different reasons to others.
    I am watching it and thinking that the shock being felt by the citizens must be similar to that felt by those living in a war zone, not knowing if there will be another attack and if there is, will it be your home that gets blown up and if you, a family member or friend will die.

    Just watching on ITV+1 now. Interesting that people just assumed it was a tragic accident at first. Terrorism just didn't cross their minds. How times have changed.

    Find it funny when moderators who ban people for no reason venture on to other boards.

    People who post them should be banned as well.
