Oh dear, The Sun must be at the barrel scraping stage if they fall for lame rubbish such as this:

(See the story at http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/2960673/Ghostly-figure-of-a-weeping-girl-in-mirror-of-hotel-room.html)

This little girl gets about a bit. Sometimes she appears in kitchen door glass (http://www.ghostsandstories.com/little-girl-ghost.html).

But this is hardly surprising considering this iPhone App: http://www.appstorehq.com/ghostcapture-iphone-79452/app

But it isn’t just the outrageous fakery that annoys me. Just read the story for all the signs of Sun Bullshit:

• Unidentified guests
• Unidentified spokesman
• Random words in BOLD CAPITALS

Honestly, if they want some made-up bullshit they should contact me. A copy of my CV should proove fictional enough for them.

Ban this sick filth.

According to yesterdays papers, the SAS are taking delivery of four Eurocopter Daupin, which will be camoflaged in civilian markings, for surprise attacks on terrorists.

“Nobody will bat an eyelid when one of them in civvy colours turns up over a built-up area. It looks the same as a corporate ride.” one of the SAS told The Sun, even though the only known UK owner of one is the dwarfish footballist Michael Owen.

These helicopters, which come with state-of-the-art communications equipment and a quiet rotor system will provide an ideal platform for anti-terrorism.

Nice. Anti-terrorism is good.   But…

Buying helicopters from the French isn’t so good, as anyone who ever owned a French car will tell you.

Still, at least they’ll tell you how to fly them and give you the keys, unlike the bloody Americans and the Chinook.

They probably fly for about 200 miles before slowly dissembling themselves into component parts, probably somewhere over Cheshire.

However, Eurocopter is the successor of Aérospatiale, the company who made the SA-341G Gazelle.

Now you may not recall the Gazelle. Here is a picture of one:

Hmm, that looks familiar…doesn’t it have the same tail section as…

Yup, its Blue Thunder.

In reality, the Blue Thunder helicopter was a cosmetic make-over of the Gazelle. It was intended to make it look scarier, unlike the current plan…

Looking back on the Blue Thunder film (not the TV series, never look back at that), Tactical Helicopter Offensive Response, THOR, was the “proposed use of military helicopters to quell disorder” during the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics.

Now I’m not drawing any parallels here, but by the time the 22 Regiment acually get their hands on these things the Olympics will be nigh on hand. But they probably won’t work properly, and will need to go back to the main dealer after a week. Being French.

I’m just thinking… and I think that is still legal.

Sometime back in ’93, a load of crop circles appeared in a field very near to my house. Neither myself, nor my cronies at the time, have any idea how they got there. Aliens? That’s the most likely thing.

On July 1st 1993, the following story appeared in the Stafford Post.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the fields… By Kathryn Ellison
Wierd and wonderful freaks of nature, UFOs, signs from beyond or just another hoax? Thats the question baffling locals since Stafford’s first crop circle appeared last Thursday. The circles, in fields opposite the University, were spotted by a woman out walking her dog. But local crop circle enthusiast John Watkins has his doubts about the Stafford spectacle. “The circle is in green corn, wheras they are normally found in mature golden corn,” said John. “And the circles are usually pressed down like a rosette, but they are rather rough and uneven with this one. “It could be that the students up to a prank have done it with a piece of string, but these things are interesting phenomenon and should not be dismissed out of hand.” One local who rang to say that he could see the circles from his window said: “They don’t look very supernatural to me, I could have done better myself!”

The “woman” out walking her dog, and the sceptical local were one and the same.
Step forward Mr. Jon Wilkinson (wearing a white t-shirt in the above photos).
For the record… I’m the one in black in the photos, wearing pretty much the same clobber as I did to work today.
