    I had a fully backed up, heavily researched, bullet proof arguement to support the AllAgro, but you destroyed it in four words! "It's OK with Cleggy"

    You did forget one point, it must have been a brilliant design to have been put into successful production at a plant run by Red Robbo. Had they designed something with complex engineering like a MkI Golf, no chance, they would have gone bust much earlier.

    You can claim many things.

    Mike I think Andreas is suggesting our neutral stance will not stand us in great stead should the car park fracas come to fruition.

    I believe plan B is now and option (based on a fact we don't have a current plan B can I suggest we fly a flag of convenience until plan B becomes a reality)

    PS:I can throw in some Welsh blood BBC Wales - History - Themes - Wars of the Roses

    However I do have a strong leaning to the Marches

    regards

    Geoff,

    That sounds like it could be an interesting programme if it comes off.

    Where they are going to dig was overlooked by my late fathers office.

    This has been building, and even debated briefly in the HoC (York & Worksop making a passing claim), but it now seems most certain Leicester Cathedral will take the bones, if they are Richard's (and possibly I suppose, if they're not).

    Maybe they'll use the slab that's already there, with an addendum...

    I might even potter along if possible - never seen a King's funeral before.

    Richard III: The King in the Car Park - Channel 4 - Info - Press

    When a skeleton was reported found under a Leicester council car park last September, the news broke around the world. Could these be the remains, lost for 500 years, of our most infamous king? Now, in a world exclusive, Channel 4 has the full inside story of the hunt for Richard III.

    Richard III isn't mentioned in '1066 And All That', so I have my doubts he existed at all. If a person did not exist how could he have died, and buried to boot leaving a corpse to be found? Nope, ain't buying it.

    Wow that lady who is quoted at the end sounds like she has anger management issues. And what's that about suspicions that Leicester Cathedral can't provide a decent Christian service? Just because Leicester F.C. can't provide decent football, doesn't mean Leicester A.C. can't provide decent Christianity.

    In any case, just to spite her, I'd ask the Reverend Moon to read the service, with assistance from Tom Cruise representing Scientology.

    All the best

    You don't have the slightest hunch about this then?
