The first Ratel prototype appeared in March 1972,[2] and serial production commenced in 1976.[3] Rights to the original prototype were also sold to Belgium, which produced an amphibious derivative known as the SIBMAS.[11]

The "moon" is clearly made of polystyrene foam and the "earth" is a painted disc. You know I'm right.

Dogs don't bark at you when you "stop being gay", apparently.

NoVax Djokovic has just knocked out Nadal in four sets. Commentators saying it is only the third time he’s lost at Roland Garros. Unless I misheard that of course.

A signature is meant for individuals / natural persons, whereas a seal is used by a legal entity (business or organisation) and can be used by more than one person or system within the legal entity. The Monarch does sign things such as a letter patent that provides royal assent for an act of Parliament to be enabled, but does not actually sign the bill itself.

'Cristiano Ronaldo’s removal of two Coca-Cola bottles during a press conference at the Euros has coincided with a $4bn fall in the share price of the drinks giant.

The Portugal captain is a renowned health fanatic and made it clear what he thinks of the carbonated soft drink. The 36-year-old shifted the bottles of Coca-Cola away from him during a press conference in Budapest on Monday in the prelude to his country’s Group F game against Hungary.

Ronaldo followed it by holding up bottle of water before declaring in Portuguese: “Agua!”, appearing to encourage people to choose that instead.


Coca-Cola’s share price dropped from $56.10 to $55.22 almost immediately after Ronaldo’s gesture, a 1.6% dip. The market value of Coca-Cola went from $242bn to $238bn – a drop of $4bn.

Coca-Cola, one of the official sponsors of Euro 2020, replied on Tuesday with a statement that said “everyone is entitled to their drink preferences” with different “tastes and needs”.'

"What did you do today?"
"Went out, did a bit of shopping, picked up some secret documents at the bus stop..."
Classified Ministry of Defence documents found at bus stop

Classified Ministry of Defence documents containing details about HMS Defender and the British military have been found at a bus stop in Kent.

One set of documents discusses the likely Russian reaction to the ship's passage through Ukrainian waters off the Crimea coast on Wednesday.

Another details plans for a possible UK military presence in Afghanistan after the US-led Nato operation there ends.

The government said an investigation had been launched.

A Ministry of Defence spokesperson said an employee had reported the loss of sensitive defence papers, adding: "It would be inappropriate to comment further."

The documents, almost 50 pages in all, were found in a soggy heap behind a bus stop in Kent early on Tuesday morning.

A member of the public, who wishes to remain anonymous, contacted the BBC when he realised the sensitive nature of the contents.

I once found a wallet on a train late at night and the next morning had a look through to see if I could find a number to call and let someone know I had it. Found a number on a bit of paper and called.

“Hi, I found a wallet last night and your number was on a bit of paper, do you know this person”

“Does anyone else know you have it?”

“No”

“ I need you to go to the local police station and wait there until some people arrive to speak with you, do not mention to anyone, and I mean anyone, what you are doing”

So I did and a team of 4 people arrived an hour later and questioned me for about 3 hours. Never found it who the person was it belonged to but eventually was told to go home
