It was also an alternative landing site for the Space Shuttle if it couldn’t land in the US.

Thanks for confirming that. I didn't want to ask Territorial about religion in Holland. Don't like to prod him too much.

That there is a difference in peppers ..
Female Peppers are more round, they have 4 bumps on the bottom. They have more seeds on the inside and when eaten raw they are sweeter than the male peppers. So these are better for salads and sandwiches.

Male Peppers are taller and thin, they only have 3 bumps. They are not as sweet but hold up better in heat and are better for cooking.

Who knew !!

Idris Elba (the fella in American Gangster who gets shot in the head in front of everyone in the street)  is an English actor. 

Never seen The Wire but he's one of the main fellas in that too. 
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Ah Muff, he does all the bleeding Sky adverts. He recently did the FIFA awards.... People have been calling for him to be the new Bond for years. In fact he maintains a fairly ubiquitous presence across many media platforms and is very clearly English. Pull your socks up son.
