You think they should be sending healers and damage dealers instead? Thank the Lord I don't know what you are on about.
I'd like to know amipal's view. Both Challenger 2 and AS-90 are powerful systems. Challenger 2 is arguably one of the best tanks in the world - only one has ever been lost in combat, and that was due to a direct hit from another Challenger 2… The trouble is, neither vehicle are simple devices. They need substantial logistics, and both use of and maintenance of the machines require a lot of training. Neither system was designed for use by a conscript army, unlike the legacy Soviet vehicles. Challenger 2 also sports a rifled 120mm gun, which uses a completely different type of ammunition to the common smoothbore 120mm used by other NATO MBTs. So that’s another challenge for Ukraine’s logistics to deal with. Honestly, as much as I want to see Challenger 2 popping turrets in Ukraine, they are going to prove difficult to use effectively. But I think ultimately we’re sending them to make it easier for Germany to say yes to allowing Leopard 2 usage by Ukraine.

No way Alex James eats in burger joints. Artisanal cheese only.

Also, Vlad will make it a priority to take them out asap to dissuade Germany et al to send more.
My 2 cents.

My neighbours just checked on me to make sure that I'm OK. Apparently the temperature is dropping like a stone, so it's an extra layer of stuff and I am going to shut up shop early...

Evening all
Left over lasagne for tea. Boodiful.
The eldest also made Empanadas in Food Tech so I had one of them too - pray for Tuffers. Actually it was nice, well it tasted nice, I just hope hygiene is part of the lesson.
Going to watch The Last of Us shortly by using perfectly legitimate means I got from Nadim Zahawi.

Having trained to be a teacher in my younger years: NEVER EAT ANYTHING MADE BY CHILDREN THAT YOU HAVEN’T SUPERVISED! You will get the plague, and die. On second thoughts…

Apparently my new phone can handle the Total War games. Can I handle them though? That's the question.

Either: you will hate them, picking on every incorrect detail, like an overenthusiastic scholastic. Or you will love them like Henry The Fowler loved a good early reducer. Medieval 2 is one of my all time favourite games.

Wow. The Last of Us first episode was utterly brilliant. 10*
It exceeded my expectations. Would recommend. Hope the rest of the series is as good and as true to the game.
Disclaimer - I'm of TLOU fanboy I'll admit.
