what to do when X factors on and the rest of rubbish

Alternating with How I met your Mother.

We like the X factor as it provides excellent opportunities for demonstrating our wit and sarcasm. Strictly is not tolerated. Other favourites include Xena Warrior Princess, Come a Dine, and anything involving destroying a perfectly good living room.

I'd better not tell you what I do during the day...

was the TSR2 used as a test bed for Concordes engines, I am sure their is also one at Cosford.
when I read the political commentary, I thought I was on Y&Y forum, good job this is in Banter

No - the Avro Vulcan was used as a testbed for the Concorde engines - fitted under the fuselage. Much noise when I saw it ( and felt it ) at Farnborough a few years ago.

But not as loud ( and chest thumpy ) as Concorde doing a showoff demo takeoff just before they were grounded.

The Vulcan was also used for testing the TSR2 engines

Nowt wrong with the Big Bang Rupert.......Sheldon's my hero ......probably says more about me than the show's humour though

Other than that I bury my head in boaty reading, or online, unless there's a decent film on........just too cold, dark and draughty in the garage in the evenings at present.
