Tintinnabulum! it may be a made up language but what a fantastic name for an out of this world song, Karl Jenkins deserves a revisit every now and then and Adiemus is as good as he gets. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKDJP-M0C4U --- Fri Jan 27, 2012 4:30 am --- And then there were Talking Heads, To...

Aah, so Ahmedinnejad and the regime he speaks for are everyone's best friend, there is no nuclear threat from the regime's ambitions and the rest of the world are just picking a fight with him because they want to steal Iran's oil and gas reserves, right then.

I don't see you as a dog owner somehow, Dillon. And you would be exactly right BM, not to say I don't like dogs, I just don't think Dubai is a suitable or very friendly environment for them, and I have never considered keeping a lapdog or a toy breed confined within domestic premises very fair on t...

I like fish, any fish, but it has to be fresh, I was once poisoned by an unscrupulous fishmonger in London some Years ago and believe you me, buying fish is something I’ve been very careful about ever since, and I always avoid farmed fish whenever it’s labelled, it just doesn't taste like the real t...
Welcome back from here too Herve, it's good to see a balanced forum once again instead of the usual suspects constantly trolling for attention.
