Willy and Harry fight it out ...

[Felix/FFDS]

I can't believe that my limey friends haven't posted already!

[Woodlouse2002]

We were waiting for you!

What? Where? Who?

I'm an uneducated barbaric German, I want education! Now!

[Felix/FFDS]

Actually, Oct 14 was another of those busy days:

Willy, that SOB, and Harry fought it out, and Vickers named a transport plane after the arena;

Chuck left his voice behind so he couldn't hear himself speak....


Niki got the boot, a year to the day after he and John almost came to a big blow up over big cigars,

and that sly fox of the sands got told to either do himself in or get done in and have his name/family dragged through the mud ....

What in the h*ll are you guys talking about?

[Woodlouse2002]

It's simple. First point, Battle of Hastings, 1066. William (not yet the conquerer) VS. King Harold. Vickers had an aircraft called the Hastings.

Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier.

Nikita Khruschev, Russian Premier disposed of after cuban missile crisis.

And Erwin Rommel forced to commit suicide after being linked with a plot to assassinate Hitler.


Easy.

Did I mention that I'm a genius?

Or you and Hagar (a long time ago) twigged on my warped sense of humor!

Anything is possible.

OOOOOOH! now it makes sense.

I picked up on the Battle of Hastings (we've recently had other posts) and Rommel ordeals. I suppose, if I weren't so lazy, I could have done a 'calendar event' search and figured out the others. Unlike Woodlouse, I unfortunately can't claim to be a genius but, in respect to my previous sentence, it helps to know as much as I can so that I don't have to go searching .

And here I was thinking Felix was gossiping about the royal family... You silly people!  ;D William and Harry in a fistfight... cool...  ;D

[Hagar]

I would just like to point out that I had nothing whatsoever to do with any of this so don't blame me. I get the blame for quite enough already, thank you.

That was my initial thought. But then I remembered Felix wouldn't post anything that would obtain the front page of the Daily Mail.

Nope. In 1066 they may have been wearing their mail, though .
