Rather unamusingly, I misread the title of this post as 'pornography question'

That is all.

The extremities of temperature [as Rick pointed out, hot summer, cold winter] are also partly due to the angle the the earth spins at on its axis.

This however is all irrelevant as we don't really exist.

Yes, it always rains in Scotland - but I wouldn't trade it for anywhere else in the UK

Was just thinking how ironic it is that someone from Poland knows more about the UK and can type better English than someone from London (no names mentioned)

* Joke *

Actually there are people over here who study britich culture and English language who know a lotmore then avarage Briton, but it's the same the other way. Professor Norman Davies speaks Polish quite as good as I do and he know a lot more about our history than I do I suppose.

There was this English dialect from some remote islands (in the Pacific I think) that is pretty much fonetic reading of English words.. don't remember how it was called.. very hard to understand at first....

If I can just have an opinion - if you have the budget to do 5-10k GPB rebuilds DON'T go T4/RS500 way. It's really pointless to have SO MUCH lag.
