"The project cost 140 million pounds", that sound quite cheap.

I've always been into stealth/ultra-modern, but I find technology and speculation of the 1980s far more interesting than today's reality and future predictions. From F-117s in the Gulf, to Craig Thomas and Tom Clancy fiction (especially Cold War scenarios), I've lost all interest in today's modern aircraft (F-22, F-35, UAVs).

And thanks to a Kindle, I've also developed a hatred for touch screens. smile



The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in
Gives way and suddenly it’s day again
The sun is in the east
Even though the day is done
Two suns in the sunset, hmph
Could be the human race is run

Taran = THUNDER !

The reconstructed Proto-Celtic form of the name is *Toranos "thunder". In present day Welsh taranu and taran means 'to thunder' and 'thunder' (tarani and taran in Breton), and in present day Irish Tarann means 'thunder'.

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra m�d,
Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra m�r yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.

Present day Irish? Isn't that Gaelic or is it no longer called that?

Can be called either Irish or Gaelic - Scots also have their own version of Gaelic too. We would never refer to it as Gaelic though, just Irish.
