I flew from London to Glasgow (a short trip mind you) back in the 1960s, and it was the most comfortable plane I've ever been on, and I've flown five times round the world since, NZ to UK and return. Which plane, in your memory, was the best to fly in?

I put a question on Y/A and received two replies which were sent to my Yahoo e-mails. On clicking the panel to access the answers, all I got was a single click which appeared to come from my laptop, and the answers would not appear. What is the problem?

My great-great grandfather left Nth. Ireland for Scotland around the early part of the nineteenth century. In the 1851 UK Census, it's stated that he was born in a town/village in County Tyrone by the name of Limlianangra (?) The spelling of this place seems to be incorrect as I cannot find reference to it anywhere. Does anyone have any idea what the correct name of this place might be?

Not for the world of me can I imagine what is advantageous about them. Enlighten me.

From where does this expression originate?

Any sensible suggestions would be appreciated.

where the tiresome utterance "Oh my God" has NOT been heard? YA doesn't seem to be immune from it either. A sad lacking of original expression.

and there depicted on the plain wall opposite my bed was the clear image of a two-storeyed house sited about 30 metres from the bedroom window. The dark coloured curtains were closed, except for a narrow opening where they met at the top. I took several photographs of the image on the wall, and when the film was developed and printed, the photos were only of the blank wall.

I'm guessing that the small gap at the curtain top acted like the lens of a camera, as the clarity of the image could be enhanced by manipulating the gap. Was I trying to photograph a negative or what?

Meanwhile, Donald sits on the edge of the bed, eagerly anticipating a night of passion.

At long last, Daisy emerges from the bathroom and joins Donald on the bed. Inflamed with passion, Donald leaps on his new bride.

"Hang on, says Daisy, do you have a condom?"

"No, replies Donald, didn't think I needed one."

"Well you'd better get one, because we're not doing it without, Daisy retorts."

"Where will I get one at this time of night, moans Donald?"

"Try the reception downstairs, suggests Daisy, coldly."

Muttering to himself, Donald waddles downstairs to the reception and says to the young lady at the desk,

"This is a bit embarrassing, but do you have such a thing as a condom?"

"Certainly sir, she replies, we keep a stock for just such emergencies."

She produces the desired item and hands it to Donald.

As he is walking off, the girl calls,

"Excuse me sir, but would you like me to put it on your bill?"

"What kind of duck do you think I am?" rasps Donald

An oldie, but worth a chuckle.

I have a five hour wait at Frankfurt while in transit from Singapore to Edinburgh, and would appreciate a freshening up.
