    I would love it if oor Ponders turned out to be Terry Pratchett. But, sadly, Terry is now a gibbering mess.

    Me too.

    It's very difficult for a writer to make you laff out loud while reading his book but Terry managed it time and time again.

    My personal favourites were the books set in Ank Morpork when the watch were involved. "Gaurds! Guards!" particularly springs to mind.

    My first Terry was "Pyramids" and that got me hooked. Read all his back catalogue after that and everything ever since.

    God Bless the Terry.

    Solitary confinement until they die, a diet of bacon and Kaliber.

    ... sorry fella but you've lost me there ... how the hell did the Falklands conflict really effect Britain other than to prolong the stint in power for the Iron Lady? ... it's a rock off the coast of Argentina? ... frankly the Argentinians would have as valid a claim to the Scilly isles as far as I can see <laugh>

    A slow hanging would be good, but a lifetime in chokey being razored across their ugly boatraces every week will suffice

    Sorry misread your post. The greasy dagoes have as much claim to the Falkland Islands as they do to the Scilly Isles i.e. none.

    The Falklands are British, the people there are British. We were right to
    defend them, unlike...Poland, for instance.

    Marbella has more Brits than the Falklands ever did ... a population of under 3,000, if you exclude military (and sheep), of which around 70% are of British ancestry ... just not sure it was worth the casualties tbh ... could have resettled them closer to home if they really wanted to remain British ... and after all, their ancestors must have left for a reason... my own view is that the conflict helped shore up the popularity of a government on the wane ... and that was the real reason that we went to war ... but then I am rather a cynic...

    You may well be right about why we went to war but what does it matter how far away it is or how few inhabitants there are?
    Argentinians never inhabited the place.

    Toby, the world's most boring fud, supports the Argentinians* on this one, rather predicatably.

    *Those that actually give a **** and believe they have a claim to the place which is by no means all.

    Cool, do Sherlock and Mycroft argue all the time in real life like they do on tv?

    There are loads of Brits in Poland!

    Wait, I may have that the wrong way around.
