  1. "Computer Speaker may distort Results," take note, I don't think this test can be valid , I am 60 y and worked in heavy enginering , and worked on engines with open exhausts in enclosed workshops till my ears nearly bled, LOL so I can still hear 22,000Hz ? I doubt it , pardon ! did you speak Roco UK

  7. Hi Tommie thanks but remember I will have 7 hours start on you ,so there may not be much left , only 2 hours to go for me. no we do not have any celebrations for the country or its people , we have the Queens birthday , but nothing happens and we have Guy Fawkes night (5Nov.) with fireworks , this is to celebrate the attempt to blow up the house of Parliament, (I think most UK peasants wish it had succeeded ) we Brits have a perverse sense of humour ,even our patron Saint (.George ) was Greek, So I hope you guys don't mind me tagging on to your 4th July celebrations, as any ecuse for a p*ss up, now let me think when was the French Bastille day , have a good day ,regards Roco UK

  9. Hi me again ( oh no )your friendly Brit. I was thinking about your Independence day , and the influence the USA has had on this Brit. , just had a quick look around the house and came up with this montage, LOL I once had the privilege of raising the Stars and Stripes , accompanied by a American Mil. band playing the Star spangled banner , ( yeah, it went OK and your flag never touched the ground ), But I must admit I had to turn away after , as I was all chocked up , Hey, try getting emotional about God save the Queen it basically means save the Queen but f**k the peasant's , P.s the Jack Daniels is hidden away till Tuesday Roco UK
  10. Hi the 1/2 , you were surprisingly lucky , did you have any damage to your property ? I used to be employed by the UK Electricity board , part of my job was to inspect the damage caused by lightning strikes, normally the damage was extensive , i.e. chimney stack destroyed , roof tiles missing , electrical wiring ripped out of the walls , all electrical appliances plugged in destroyed , and signs of fire damage, it was just like a surreal painting by Salvador Dali, My claim to fame is, I was struck by ball lightning while driving my car(convertible ) it was the most spookiest thing , normally this phenomenon is reported as alien space craft stuff , ( not so, they dont exist, IMHO) the first warning I got was the hair on my arms stood on end, 5seconds later my world turned into a white-out for around 5-10 seconds , no pain , then my vision returned , as I was doing 70mph I traveled a fair distance before I was back in full control of the car , Lucky for me the road was straight , a following motorist said my car disappeared in a brilliant white flash , and he was surprised to see it still there after the incident , a violent storm was taking place about 20 miles away at the time , so guys if your hair stands on end for no apparent reason , you have about 5 seconds to say WTF, then it gets you , Roco UK
  11. We like to take our time over such matters, with a nice cup of tea, even with the thought of the lost revenue it is part of our heritage , you can steal a Englishmans wife , but don't mess with his tea break time and place, let me just check the height thread , oh hell you guys certainly grow tall, is it because of this rc cola and peanuts thing, ? Sorry my diary is full right up ,as I am off to the Hague EU centre to seek asylum and rub shoulders with all the lost members from the TAG thread Joking aside have a great 4th of July /happy_bday.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':bday:' />:' /> to America Roco UK
  12. Huh, 4th July ? I think 1776 was a fix , the ref. was biased, anyway some of our best strikers were still on the bench, I think we should have had a rematch on our home ground ! :lol: LOL Have a great Independence day Best Regards Roco UK P.S. you got a Holiday ? all we got was our tax raised
  13. Oh LOL , cholla , is Texas in the states, I thought it stood alone, as the lone star state, Gabby Hayes , kinda hero to me, and Roy Rogers, also for my MUM I guess as I was Christend ROY , or was it because those" Bloody Yanks were over here and over paid," LOL Yeah the Brit humour is kinda weird , we are very good at taking the p**s out of ourselves, Regards Roco uk
  14. Sad fact of life, you got us again, LOL
  15. OOH, I resemble that remark, I will have you know I am not as green as I am cabage looking , LOL
  16. nope, WTF WHY refresh your desk top ? it was the same one as yesterday
  17. LOL reso.... you can see my beer belly ?, the web cam has just gone out the window , LOL and after a good nights sleep, the best I can manage is to grope for the coffee, I think I have reached the age of shrinking in height, and transfering it to the waist , lol
  18. Hi Tommie, yes I think you are right on this, I certainly noticed on this side of the pond, a definate sense of friendship towards the USA , we were becoming used to being european in outlook , and turning our backs on the USA, The term "bloody Yanks" ( sorry I know you all dislike that term and it is incorect) has now all but disapeared, it was never meant as a insult in the Uk , it was just a part of our Brit, humour ,almost a complement in fact so whatever you build, good luck , Roco uik
  19. Help I am shrinking , my G/F has just measured me , And I am 6 ft 1.1/2 inches tall. I used to be 6 ft 2 ins. by my calculations if I live to 100y I will be 5ft. 3ins. but looking on the bright side it wont be so far to fall .
