Only if you ignore Bush and Trump.

Trump didn't invade endless random countries just to cause resentment against the US, the others did in order to create an enemy when one previously didn't exist so they could pretend to be keeping world peace.

Nor set a Red Line which he then refused to enforce, making America look like a paper tiger.

Sorry Eddie, we've hijacked your thread.

Mr. Obama passed a somber, little-noticed milestone: He has now been at war longer than Mr. Bush, or any other American president.

Sorry Eddie but facts are facts! He was the first ever President to be at war for both his full terms in power. Nobel peace prize winner :roll: :lol:

No need to apologise to me, I still haven't found the missing head and manifold.

Isn't it technically 3x missing manifolds?

Your jizz bonnet escapade reminds me of when partner parked my xj8 in Wallsend. There was a big yellow girder just under bonnet height to stop you going over the edge. With it being so long, she managed to put the jag nose under the fucker. The noise must have been lovely.

Luckily I hadn't fitted the leaper at the time. That would've been some damage.

Yes it is. I've had a old set of 8 valves on top of one of the kitchen cabinets for aeons, but the mystery deepens about what exactly I've done with the head. Looking back at timestamps on old photos...

24/04/2010 picture of engine with head off.
26/04/2010 picture of engine with head on and new plugs in, but not bolted down.
26/12/2010 head on dining room table in Carlisle with new valves.
