  A few questions for the Brits

  i saw the movie "the queen" a few days ago, and was wondering how accurate the portrayals were of some of the things in the movie, such as:.

  -- in at least one scene, tony blair is shown in the back seat of a car being driven down a highway, with his secretary at his side.

  it appears that there is normal, regular traffic going down the road along with him.

  In the early part of 1980 I tried to drive across a main road from a minor road ,in Preston.I was held up for over an hour after I had put in a full eight hours work .Every road through was blocked.I got out of my vehicle and waited with the crowds ,eventually the motorcade past ,Prince Phillip waived so did the Queen but I don't think they recognised me.When I was in the RAF the Queen came to visit the base ,all leave was cancelled for a week that included everyone on the station.Another time all flights over an area near Oxford were stopped for a day while Prince Charles flew over the area.When Prince Charles did his parachute course he dropped into the sea ,everyone had to do it onto land.

  During the Margaret Thatcher era at the party conferences all roads around the conference centre were closed,every time she moved a car would whisk her away with a helicopter flying overhead.Any delivery vans driven past the back of her hotel were routinely searched with their contents thrown out onto the pavement.Police marksmen were placed on top of prominent buildings.Ambulances and operating theartes were permanantly on stand by.All metal pavement and road access covers were welded together .Armed police were everywhere in the town centre making the holiday resort a fortress.

  Just thought you would like to know.

  IT IS TIME FOR A___CONFESSION!

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  there is an old-fashioned definition of the word "confession" which is the public expression of one's deepest faith and belief.. take a deep breath and give a one or two paragraph summary of your deepest belief.. i'll go first.. from the time i was a small child i had a deep and abiding reverence for god as a father.

  (my own father i never even met until i searched and found him when i was 25 years old.

  ) my grandmother had been raised in a catholic convent.

  Hi fellow freedom fighters.

  Remember the words of the great Frank Sinatra."Basically, I'm for anything that gets you through the night - be it prayer, tranquilizers

  or a bottle of Jack Daniels." and he also said, "You gota love livin', baby, 'cause dyin' is a pain in the ass.

  Just trying to cheer you up.

  Gary,

  You are spot on.The kingdom hall is more like a place of corporate sales than a place of worship,more like a hotel function room.

  Worship they say .More like a duff insurance policy scam with no pay out at the end.

  Counting Time

  by Xena in

  i don't know about anyone else but this could be the source of major contention between dubs in my halls.

  you had those who started their time as soon as you pulled out of the hall parking lot (me), those who counted from the first knock at the door or laundry mat visited, and the die hards who didn't start until they actually spoke to someone(my sister).

  my sister and i would go round and round about this, i finally just pretended to start my time when she did just to shut her up.

  I missed going to meetings for months .Eventually I showed up at an assembly walked passed a brother and the first words that greeted me was "not had a report from you lately." I turned right around and walked out, they never ever got another report from me again.They never ever got me doing anything else for that matter.

  Started going to our local parish church regulary for five years.Stopped going for two years, went back again, the love and warmth showed to me on return was overwhelming.Guess who still has my support?

  It is an advertising slogan for the Brooklyn Book Company and we all know adverts take liberties .Why should they be different to any other commercial product.

  Buyer beware

  I'ts very fashionable at this time, fashions change.Don't do anything irriversible.

  Hope you don't take this as a criticism.Knew a guy once who had tatoos removed on both arms by lazer .The agony he suffered was something else.

  Just reporting what I saw,and wishing you well.
