BBC tells us that gene edited tomatoes are coming our way soon. Apparently gene edited food is safe with predictable results, where as I recall being persuaded that genetically modified food is/was dangerous with unknown outcomes.

What is your opinion if push comes to shove ? Maybe just brinkmanship but it is looking mighty close. Should we, could we, as part of a joint effort, support the Ukraine militarily ? Or, will we be witness to an updated version of 1930s appeasement ?

Thanks for your help

My LAA insurance last year had £2M combined single limit with no sublimit on passenger liability.
In my renewal quote just received, this has been changed to a sublimit of 250,000SDR per passenger which I think currently corresponds to just over...

By some accident I find my membership at FLYER has expired, but a cursory search of my emails reveals no notification of this event.

Surely this is bad policy, or is it just a function of the current disruption?

Well today my Canon MG2950 stopped printing - Error 5B00. It is fully serviceable but seems to have printed the number of copies that Canon will allow; hence it has reached the end of the road. The problem is that the ink absorber was full (85%)...

I like flying to islands in light aircraft.

Flying to Islands is one of the few opportunities to actually disprove the adage "Time to spare, go by air."

Today I went to the Isle of Wight.

Last week I went to Alderney.

Bit more than a 'touchdown'.

Just a quick update on a trip I'd planned with a flying buddy before lockdown scuppered every ones plans.

Evening all,

Bit of an intro. I thought I'd done one already but seems like it was not posted or I didn't press the right button.
