peterms Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 They keep spotting junk floating on the water but that is because the seas really are literally littered with junk these days. You would not believe how much crap there is floating around out there. Some 200 years of commercial shipping has taken its toll. The trade body for the people using shipping containers say the figure of 10,000 containers a year lost at sea is wrong, and it's more like 700. Which still seems like an awful lot to me, quite apart from all the other junk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers13 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Actually , Jenny has a point, if you're a qualified , experienced pilot , why go home and get on a flight simulator ? That would be like an accountant going home from work and playing on a scientific calculator all night. Odd Ole gunnar Solskjaer plays football manager, kind of similar.

I hear some footballers stay behind after training to practice techniques. I think it's safest if we send all these types to Guantanamo Bay, just in case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
