Ask what they made the Europa out of. The boys couldnt blow it up no matter how much they tried.

I reckon the boys only did it to create a tourist attraction. You can buy me a drink there next month if you want, Almost.

Too posh and expensive for me Dot. I prefer Kellys Cellars in Cathedral Quarter. Much more butch.

BS 5628-3 replaced by the Eurocodes - BS EN 1996-1-2:2005.  Bear in mind that if the wall is load-bearing you might need a competent structural engineer to undertake or verify the design.

I had asked because a structural engineer asked me Fishy.
