I'm sure the Marines will take their's "frosty cold", and I'm sure their gracious hosts will be more than willing to accommodate their taste.

I'd just like to dispel the myth that Beer in Britain is warm. 95% of the beer sold in pubs is DAMNED COLD, we haven't had warm beer since WW2. I've been in and out of pubs since I was a kid in the 70s (we start 'em young) and the beer glasses have always had condensation running down the sides. As many a visiting American stand up comedian has noticed when they come here, not only is our beer cold, it's DAMNED STRONG TOO! Hence the oft repeated joke "Why is American beer like making love in a canoe?" I'll leave you to work that one out for yourselves!

Yes not long now until Big Liza Lifts her skirts and sets sail on the briny for the first time. I have a sneaking suspicion the reason for the delay in the start of her sea trials was down to someone from Newport News paying a backhander to a few influential people in Rosyth so that Big Gerry could finally go to sea before Liz did. And you wonder why the Ford was costing so much...
