Breaking news from UK...this is no drill

The Home Service news has just announced that Police have now captured the
man who may well have nicked and held to ransom the German ENIGMA machine.
Calling himself The Master, he was arrested during a police operation to
recover the missing wheels that without, make the machine inoperable.

This story gets more and more fascinating.......but will undoubtedly be
overshadowed in the newspapers on Sunday by the vote cont/recount/count
again/yet again saga.
The front cover of the political satire magazine Private Eye features a pic
of Gore and Bush shaking hands with speech bubbles - Gore "wot a farce" Bush
" yes - one of us will end up running the country...."

If other TV networks outside continental UK start to show a series called
Britian at War in color - dont miss it. .....
Some stunning footage , plus harrowing footage and personal interviews from
D Day. Some great vehicle shots including Scammells and other Brit vehicles
on Sword beach. Maybe it will do the rounds of Discovery/History channel
soon.

Kind regards, NIGE
