Majestic. Imagine freaking out first time seeing one of those back in the seventies.

Britain should seek to rejoin EU, says civil servant who led Brexit department

I really don't get why people are so vindictive over this whole thing. Brexit was a tragedy, people are easily misled, don't think your own particular country is immune to doing equally stupid things. Also, there are legitimate reasons for not wanting to be part of EU too, but good luck trying to have a rational debate with anyone about that.

That must've been so much fun to be a part of. It's such a cool race, it should be getting a lot more attention imo. It could easily be covered like a huge sporting event.

Directly translated, yes. A more natural translation would probably be "Meat Week". I kept the slightly weird wording, because it's actually a bit weird in Norwegian too. I'm guessing it's a conference of sorts, for the meat industry.

They managed to rescue him though, and the rest of the crew were rescued by a soviet expedition later. This pic is just one plane, I believe they had three in addition to a ship.
