So you liked my Grand Espace eh.............. Gone fishing

Just for fun ask Tony (Shropshire) what the rigger at Empuria had to say about his new container an pilot chute Gone fishing

OOOOH look your pointing to my favorite toy Gone fishing

>Well you know those European women, they just don't shower as often as the Americans do, so that might sell well over there. There you go again, I was referring to the Europeans not the French Gone fishing

might be NSFW Clipped this from a magazine, Seems that if a girls pussy just dose'nt smell pussy enough, Help is at hand you can now buy a pussy smelling perfume. An for only 20euros for 2 milliliter's it's got to be a bargain Gone fishing

For isolation? Yes Any ideas about the genesis of the 50 hz frequency in the UK? See below Is 60 hz used in some other European countries? No How values were selected The type of electricity delivered to homes and businesses was first direct current (DC) but then changed to AC electricity. The standard voltage level started at 110V, went to 240V, back to 110V, and then to 220V. The frequency started at 60Hz and then went to 50Hz in most areas. Tesla starts AC Early in the history or electricity, Thomas Edison's General Electric company was distributing DC electricity at 110 volts in the United States. Then Nikola Tesla the devised a system of three-phase AC electricity at 240 volts. Three-phase meant that three alternating currents slightly out of phase were combined in order to even out the great variations in voltage occurring in AC electricity. He had calculated that 60 cycles per second or 60Hz was the most effective frequency. Tesla later compromised to reduce the voltage to 110 volts for safety reasons. Europe goes to 50Hz With the backing of the Westinghouse Company, Tesla's AC system became the standard in the United States. Meanwhile, the German company AEG started generating electricity and became a virtual monopoly in Europe. They decided to use 50Hz instead of 60Hz to better fit their metric standards, but they kept the voltage at 110V. Unfortunately, 50Hz AC has greater losses and is not as efficient as 60HZ. Due to the slower speed 50Hz electrical generators are 20% less effective than 60Hz generators. Electrical transmission at 50Hz is about 10-15% less efficient. 50Hz transformers require larger windings and 50Hz electric motors are less efficient than those meant to run at 60Hz. They are more costly to make to handle the electrical losses and the extra heat generated at the lower frequency. Europe goes to 220V Europe stayed at 110V AC until the 1950s, just after World War II. They then switched over to 220V for better efficiency in electrical transmission. Great Britain not only switched to 220V, but they also changed from 60Hz to 50Hz to follow the European lead. Since many people did not yet have electrical appliances in Europe after the war, the change-over was not that expensive for them. U.S. stays at 110V, 60Hz The United States also considered converting to 220V for home use but felt it would be too costly, due to all the 110V electrical appliances people had. A compromise was made in the U.S. in that 220V would come into the house where it would be split to 110V to power most appliances. Certain household appliances such as the electric stove and electric clothes dryer would be powered at 220V. But Japan is a nightmare, In Japan, they use the same voltage everywhere, but the frequency differs from region to region. Eastern Japan, which includes Tokyo, uses 50Hz. In western Japan, which includes Osaka and Kyoto, they use 60 Hz. The reason for this is that after World War II, Britain was in charge of helping reconstruct Japan's electrical system in the easter part of the country and the United States set up the electricity in the western part of Japan. Since Great Britain (United Kingdom) had been using 60Hz before the war and had just switched over to the European 240V 50Hz, it is strange that they set up Japan at 100V and 50Hz, especially when the U.S. was using 60Hz. Having different voltages and frequencies within the country not only must be confusing for the people but also can result in extra costs for appliances and adapters. In conclusion The voltage and frequency of AC electricity varies from country to country throughout the world. Most use 220V and 50Hz. About 20% of the countries use 110V and/or 60Hz to power their homes. 220V and 60Hz are the most efficient values, but only a few countries use that combination. The United States uses 110V and 60Hz AC electricity. Gone fishing

Eh, Europe's 230/380/50 kitchen and bathrooms must have protected dedicated circuits, The UK I believe still runs 240/440/50 an any outlets in the bathroom must be a double wound transformer Gone fishing

Of course if you guys brought your wiring specs up to European standards half your problems wouldn't exist Gone fishing

You shure you wer'nt just trying to get to the keg of brandy thats hung round his neck Gone fishing

Hey Andy shag all the American girls you want, they're fun an entertaining, but remember, at the end of the day your going to end up with an ESSEX girl Oh an the only green card your going to get is from the NHS when you get back home Gone fishing

how do I order the good French wine. I can help you with that one, in French you say "Une bouteille de votre meilleur Rioja svp" Gone fishing

>My best suggestion- learn to say "tap water" or else you'll spend a fortune on bottles of water at dinner because that's all they will bring you.< You have got to be kidding, That just cracked me up Gone fishing

>Any other guys with this dilemma?< Man I hope your wife reads this an kicks your butt to Timbuktu, My wife may not be the greatest of drivers but I really appreciate the fact that I can drink when we go out knowing that she will drive home, With age an experience I learnt when to keep my mouth shut, Gone fishing

Fabricar biocombustibles con colza y maíz puede tener un efecto contraproducente en la lucha contra el cambio climático porque aumenta en gran medida la producción de oxido de nitrógeno, un gas con efecto invernadero 296 veces mayor que el dioxido de carbono, según demuestra un estudio que publica la revista Atmospheric Chemestry and Physics. Los autores, entre ellos el premio Nobel Paul Crutzen, han comprobado que el efecto invernadero generado es superior en un 50%-70% al de los propios combustibles fósiles (petróleo, carbón,y gas natural) An article in the magazine Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics excuse the translation, my English isn't as good as it should be To make biocombustibles with colza and maize can have a counter-productive effect in the fight against the climatic change because to a great extent increases the production of oxido of nitrogen, a gas with conservative effect 296 times greater than carbon dioxide, according to demonstrates a study that publishes the magazine Atmospheric Chemestry and Physics. The authors, among them the Nobel prize Paul Crutzen, who have verified the global warming effect is superior 50%-70% to the one of own fossil fuels (petroleum, coal, and natural gas) So en essence Biofuels will reduce carbon dioxide at the expense of putting more nitrogen in the atmosphere, and help reduce the worlds population by starvation. On the plus side Governments will get richer from the imposed "green taxes" Nice one Greenies Gone fishing

Please bear in mind the classified ad's here are world wide an not all countries can create a Paypal account. For example, I sold an AAD to a Rumanian guy and I was asking for payment via Paypal but he could'nt comply, so in the end I opened a bank account just for that transaction an we were both happy with the results.

yeah but what happens if Alabama and Mississippi play. Where the fuck do they find a virgin? Just look for a girl that can run faster than her pappy Gone fishing

An where the hell do you suppose they're going to find a virgin (let alone two) in this day an age Gone fishing
