    Surely that is from the North then? I actually got told on Saturday while I was at a beach bar that the Artic air is warm just now and it is pushing down the cold air to Europe? Yeah, I had a very exciting weekend <ok>

    Correct it is, I´m pretty sure that it was me that told you that when we were in Lisbon in the Night and Day Bar?. I told you that the black guy´s banana actually grew on a plant and not a tree. Oh the smile on your wee fat face <ok>

    To do with ship armoury,brass balls went in the cannon circa Napoleonic wars,they froze something like that though brass wouldn't freeze.

    Mick oh Mick oh Mick. The cannonballs weren't brass, the thing that the balls were stacked in a pile on was brass. Admittedly, you are probably correct about the brass not contracting so it is more than likely is a myth. The final verdict is though...you are back to being forum simpleton, Gambol is safe for now <ok>
