Country:  | 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

Country: | 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.

Country: | 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.
