You must have found the subtitles in "l'Incendie" a bit annoying. :)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread

Re: Do we need travel insurance for a holiday back to the UK?

Agreed with this and the other comments upthread. I have worldwide cover through work, but not all that many of us have this. I wouldn't rely on a credit card etc.

Re: Sluggish?
