that incident brought a phenomonen to the fire brigades attention that they didnt previously understand.

it was called the tunnel effect and was the reason why the kings cross fire moved at 12 feet per second.

originally they thought there had been ****n using a flammable material such was the ferocity and speed the fire burned at.

It was weird watching the programe last week can always remember a coloured guy in one of the underground platforms covering his face because of the smoke our train was told not to stop

Apparently bumping into d1ckheads in pubs is really far-fetched. Shagging foreign women is ridiculous too.

I've been at several locations over the years where Al Queda went on to put bombs and kill innocents. :/

i was in a plane coming out of stansted and just after take off, about 10 seconds, it shook quite violently to the side, lowered its nose and increased engine power, it then proceeded to increase speed and move away from the ground at a much slower rate than normal keeping its nose at a much lower angle.

everything about this take off was different to a normal take off procedure, due to the fact it nearly stalled.

wasnt a nice experience.

You'll probably get a yellow card for posting that, Tam. It might offend a Tim.
