Re: Wayne "I'm a moron" Rooney
You can watch it on satellite TV, though most of it will be limited overs, where you should see a decisive result; you can also see it on You Tube. Incidently President Eisenhower did watch a cricket Test Match at Lords when he paid a state visit to Britain, I believe in 1954. I presume his familia...

Re: HMS Rodney
I think in the Rodney & Nelson's situation can be summed up by one saying describing the USAF's Fairchild A-10 Thunderbolt II "Ugly But Well Hung" http://www.terrane.co.uk/ProductDetail.asp?Cat1=&Cat2=&Cat3=&CodeSearch=A%2D10&Cat1Sub=&Cat2Sub=&Cat3Sub=&Prod...

ANZAC mini series?
Hi
I was hopeing that someone on here could help me.
When I was a kid(Im 35 now) I can remember watching a mini series about Australian soldiers fighting in Gallipoli, not the film Mel Gibson was in by the way.
Can anyone remember this and what it was called? ANZACS??
Regards
Dougie
