They probably couldn't pronounce it , though!
It'd come out more like MESESS-ESSER-SUMMIT, or something.

I can imagine the lanc trying to get his kids interested

Can you say "Boeing B-17 Flying Crap?"

Can you say "Mk.II Lancaster with Bristol Hercules engines?"

It would be a nightmare

And, being a little late, here's my FILTHY desk.

The big picture, is big for a reason. The red circled picture, is what I do when I'm bored. (it's a plane) and the green bit, is what I do at work...when not working. They're all tied together. Oh, and can't forget the manly Thunderbirds cup.

On my computer screen is waiting for an online game of Blitzkrieg. And the garden gnome, is a farting gnome which I just use to hold the mouse lead.

And I took that picture before I had been drinking, that's why there's no beer cans.
