In my opinion they should be, untill at least proper security arrangements are made. A delay would be the sensible thing to do even if Blair, Allawi and Bush insist it would be a victory for the militants.

Contact lenses wouldnt be a good idea becasue they just come off in water. A pair of glasses can just be wiped and only take a second to take off or put on.

Ive been doing plenty of fitness training for ages now, but fitness isnt all im after. Anything that could be beneficial would interest me.

I cant bleieve that people are going out to these places for holidays so soon after the disaster. Who would stay in top accomodation knowing what suffering is going on down the road?

Glad its only a handfull and that lots of people have donated towards the relief effort.

Ive asked before about courses designed to prepare poeple for the armed forces, but to no avail. So im asking again.

Ovourse the twats who shout racist abuse should be shamed and punised. However dont forget that such remarks are made by a minority and most of the supporters do not share those views. The spanish football association needs to kick racism out of football by whatever means necesary. It should fire ...

On the Royal Navy website a few weeks back I saw something which said that it is possible to become a vehicle mechanic straight out of basic training through a direct entry scheme. Dont know if it still applies, but if you are interested then phone the AFCO or check www.royal-navy.mod.uk

The problem is that Americans will always defend thier ways by defining thier actions as democratic.
