Dave Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Sorry this is a bit late. The Daily Mail newspaper is giving away free DVDs of war films this week. You can collect the discs at WH Smith or Tesco. A few classics and 80's efforts. Otherwise it's a sh@t paper. Aren't they all? No you reply! The Sport is excellent. I wonder what DVDs they will give away? Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 The Daily Mail has had some great offers in the last year. The World At War World War One and now the war films. I have been collecting them religiously all week. It was Aces High today. And there is nothing wrong with a good old fashioned right wing newspaper :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 My Diane buys the Daily Wail for the Finance sections as she says they are easier to understand than in other papers. Therefore I have to suffer the other collections such as Danielle Steele, Barbara taylor Bradford and Catherine Cookson. My WW1 DVDs and the accompanying book got "lost in the post" as I had to collect the tokens. The Wail does have an interesting section where questions posed by readers are answered by other readers. There are a lot of historical and military topics covered eg post war use of the Staghound armoured car. There are fairly frequent historical/military articles some written by Max Hastings. A recent article covered the post war rise of the British Fasists in the East End of London. Unbelievably in the late 40's the BUF started meetings and marches in black uniforms, giving the straight arm salute and calling for the death of Jews. These meetings were violently broken up by Jewish groups led by ex-servicemen who took pro active action against the BUF who faded out in 1950. We have to remember the Daily Wail supported the BUF in the 30's. "Hurrah for the Blackshirts!" "Hurrah for the Babes in Uniform" I say.

Dave Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 Maybe if the immigrants had to watch the Catherine Cookson cds they'd go home! Back up withe the Danielle Steeles Quick answer - elect a goverment that will not give them ( and their extended families) hand outs and houses. Like France, Italy, Spain, etc ,etc Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a touch harsh. I tend to look at them as slightly misguided but with their hearts in the right place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted April 18, 2008 Author Share Posted April 18, 2008 It's great what forum topics can lead on to. You never know. I saw one of the BUF tunics in the IWM. A right kinky black double breasted effort. Really Gay! Not at all manly - unlike the panzerjacke! Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
