I couldn't agree with you more..to the armchair punter the T's looked wicked compared to the leadmines... nice one ISAF !!

Which we have been saying to sthe ISAF for some time, and the IOC want more spectacular classes and so....  Hang on we've been here before....

Looks like the breeze is in! I've started the daily live update in anticipation (hope that's not a bad move...)

Mock the Week was very funny!
