Mmmmmmm, but is it? I say Dunkirk, the French will say Dunkerque.

Before Tombouctou it was called Timbuctoo or Timbuktoo by the Tuareg, so I retain my catapult while "iveco4x4" m'lad you will have your Rubik's Cube confiscated until the end of term!!! Razz

Tom sheppard says tombouctou and thats good enough for me

Only time I ever did a rubix cube was by taking it to bits and reassembling it, probabily why I ended up with a Landrover getting nowhere fast

See Tom I told you, not everybody conforms to your spell checking, I will still post my way, clinking teacups

If you have a problem with my spelling thats your problem not mine. cheers1

Never a problem mate, wouldn't have you any other way. thumbsup

My downfall is arithmetic, take away my calculator and I'd be totally lost. Each to their own an' all that.
