Oh God no. I still intend to visit the homeland (Killin) someday, regardless if the natives speak Scottish, the Queen's English, or Norwegian.Never mind that. Would an independent Scotland put you off coming here on holiday? I suppose depending on what happened to the currency would decide its popularity as a holiday destination.
I knew I was doing something wrong at the time...Back in school I never let the whole classroom read my little written notes.
Touché.I guess you could say it's more fun with an "audience", though?![]()
I would gladly go back to Scotland to wave a wad of Connerys around.
Every historian and military expert for the past 66 years disagrees with you. On the conservative side, an Allied invasion of Japan would have cost hundreds of thousands of American deaths alone and would've resulted in the total destruction of Tokyo and everyone in it.
While Hiroshima and Nagasaki were horrid, but the 250,000 deaths are obviously better than the millions who would've been killed on both sides had the alternative happened.
As for Britain, assuming the likeliest enemy would be Russia, the Royal Navy's current Trident force is sufficient to place roughly 192 warheads (three per missile as per current deployment, sixteen per Vanguard), at 100 kilotons at maximum selected yield. That's not enough to kill everyone in the Russian Federation, but it's certainly a plausible deterrent.
Acording to NostradamusShaytan said:Especially when you ran away from Dunkerque, that was glorious.
The alternatives for the BEF were?
Oh, a sensitive topic apparently
No alternatives but I always find funny that the best way to run away can be called a miracle. In the end, it's not better than de Gaulle telling us that we were all resistants : you lost but you oficially lost with pride and glory![]()
Acording to Nostradamus,
Yeah, we even wanted more restrictions and more torture.Maybe France wanted the Nazi's to win World War Two,
If the History Channel says so, it must be true...or so the History Channel tells me.
This post needs to be quoted. For so many, many reasons
Well, I wasn't quoting it because of any truth it may contain...Yeah, sure
Nostradamus was a guy from the 16th century who wrote vague predictions because that was fashionable and the Catherine de Médicis was stupid enough (not a first fro her) to buy them.
No, thank you, I will pass![]()
Just take it all as tounge a cheek really. Clues are found by those who look for them.Yeah, sure
