History……at an accident/crime scene you could come up with several conclusions on what actually happened from the details given by witnesses. That is why I’m always skeptical about history……whose story?

Froggy... yep that one.  Saw one practicing drag starts in NE france amongst the WWI grave sites on those quiet country roads.

Sky, Really?  I will look that up for sure.  I was born in 1945 and always recknoned that I was born in the Empire on which the sun never set, my wife was in 1948 ( after India's independence) and she was born in a cold wet little island in the North sea!
I did know about the Statue of Westminster and Canada 'cos of the 1981 constitution repatriation debate but did not know that the Empire became the Commonwealth at that point.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Question: Did Porsche make better heavy assault tanks, or better sports cars?
