How distressing and I'm sorry that happened to you. We're it me I'd rock up at the police station and make a statement to support the chap who has complained about the racial slur. However as it wasn't aimed at him I can't see that going anywhere TBH. However the main victim here is you and if you wanted to take it further attending the station and making a complaint might mean you have the other gentleman as your witness if he saw you being struck. You were assaulted when she verbally abused you and there was probably a public order offence to. Striking you was the more serious offence of battery. If the police want to take it further, and you don't have to complain for them to do that, then it'll probably end up as "community resolution". They don't need a witness as they'd give her the opportunity to confess, and they may want to go to her house and have a little bit of a chat about how people should behave. Might also be CCTV at the car park. Or you can do you civic duty at the police station and put it behind you safe in the knowledge that no-one here thinks your reaction was unreasonable given the circumstances. You have the comfort that your self reflection shows you to be a nice person while she clearly is not.

Thank goodness for that, someone else thinks like me ...

Oh come on guys - No one wrote this without knowing exactly what they were doing ! The report did not say why they had picked up the penguin.

I'm pretty sure a BBC journalist has won some sort of office trophy for this article. Does anyone else see it or is it just me ? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn5xx036p4vo

For the last few weeks Marshall's of Cambridge have been putting up C130 post maintenance test flights with the callsign Airfix01 I wonder.....

It's getting a scarce resource (trauma doctor and critical care paramedic) to a (relatively) uncommon event with all the kit to stablise the patient. Then you think about conveyancing to a suitable hospital in the most suitable manner and a helicopter is frequently not the best option for the sickest patients. While a helicopter gets them on scene quickly for most of the country in very dense urban areas the fastest way to get the air ambulance crew to scene is often by car. This is why you will see fast SUVs with air ambulance liveries in some city centers cruising around waiting for a job.

Fairey Gannet AS.1 (816 RAN), 1:48 Airfix
Pigpen replied to kelly9mm's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Out Of The Box ? No, a great kit lifted to a sublime level by astonishing skill. That is one of the best models I've seen on this forum and I'm dying to get the bench tomorrow as I'm inspired to start my new model. I've had a great day with one thing and another and your pictures are another thing that's made me smile 😊- 96 replies

F-4D Phantom II MiG Killer, 1:72 FineMolds
Pigpen replied to kelly9mm's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Effing spiders ! That is something I would be tremendously proud to have made. What a lovely model in realistic setting. I must make an F4 sometime. I never cease to be amazed at the talent we see in this hobby. -
Corsairfoxfouruncle - Sorry $225 a month that's $2700 year. Is that how much insurance costs in the states or do you drive something exotic?

Technically and musically the best by a country mile would be Rush, all three times I've seen them. The most fun was The Dammed at the Victoria Hall, Hanley and the Pogues at Liverpool University's Mountford Hall. Possibility due to the dancing, drinking and company I was with. The worst, and quite frankly the most baffling, was the support act for The Stranglers at Preston Guildhall 1984. This was a "punk" ventriloquist with a mohicaned parrot as his dummy. He was very nearly lynched. Oh and Twisted Sister. Ratt at Donington Monsters of Rock were awful too, although Marrilion and ZZ Top were brill. I recall at the same gig pre fame Bon Jovi and Metallica seemed nothing special at all and nothing since has led me to change my mind...
