another giant leap backwards for mankind

Ah, but a step forward is this: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/santander-call-centres-return-to-uk-2309107.html

Great just taken out a mortgage with Abbey . so now i going to have to try and understand a Indian with a broad regional accent.Controversial i know and dont mean to offend but alas true. :roll:
 
At least virgin will have a space (just) going vehicle soon, however I find it ironic that if the American want to get someone into space they have to thumb a lift from the Russians :rofl:

Will it be a private company that gets a man to Mars first
 
You missed out Audi bolloxing le mans with oil burners ! god forbid the boys in the ///M division going to the dark side ! but yes i agree concorde --- thanks airbus bunch of french tossers ! shuttle ------ thanks merchant bankers ! insert cocney rhyming slang for real name ! as an engineer it makes your heart bleed
 
I was just saying this to someone today it's the second time in recent we have gone backwards.

Sad sad day.

:thumbsup: it is about time more companies realised that 'value' is not just about price

I doubt it - while the Virgin thing has the potential to be profitable as enough people have enough cash to be able to afford it, a Mars exploration mission would never be 'commercially viable'
as an engineer it makes your heart bleed
Even as a non engineer I still find the whole Concorde thing especially sad - such an awesome and beautiful machine that I heard and saw everyday of my childhood (went to school in Reading and you could set your watch by her as she roared over) and am saddened I never had to privilege to fly on her. Watching the flypast with the red arrows down the mall on the queen jubilee....stunning

'All calls handled by the Indian centres are now being dealt with by staff based in Glasgow, Leicester and Liverpool. '

So they'll be much easier to understand then
