    You might like this one, then (hopefully not too rude for pre-watershed). This was on American television, so they really have no excuse!

    When Asiana Flight 214 crash landed at a San Francisco airport in July 2013, the Oakland TV station KTVU was duped into giving incorrect names for the flight crew. (Probably somebody at the TV station having a private joke, which ended up being broadcast.)
    The presenter, Tori Campbell, said live on air: "The National Transport Safety Board has confirmed these are the names of the pilots on board Flight 214 when it crashed. We are working to determine what roles each of them played during the landing."
    The TV station also broadcast this graphic -

    :rotfl: Charlie Brooker used that in his yearly wipe, still makes me laugh.

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Wonder how many Elite Sunday lunches (dinners for TM) came from M7S today. We had roast chicken, though I couldn't find a very big one, and raspberry pannacotta. Both yum.

    Ah I've got the Sunday night dreads again. What movie should I watch?

    Also, I'm annoyed with myself as I haven't sent out a single CV all weekend OR completed my Red Cross training modules. Time to get a home-time to do list going I think!
