  • The Cameras from CB - TV Channel 14 visited the small British outpost - The Falkland Islands. Filmed in 1983, just over a year when the conflict between the Argentine occupation force and the British military ended, CB -TV takes a look at life on this rocky outpost, from the child's perspective.

      Argentinians need to read some history. The Falklands had no native population. They were settled by the British and the French long before Argentina existed. Just because the islands are closer to their country than to the British Isles, is no basis for a claim. And I'm saying this as a German who hates arrogant British colonialism.

Also the Falklands has almost NO CRIME apart from some traffic violations and consuming to much alcohol and even these are low compared to the number of inhabitants.The Islands also have there own democratically elected government which overseas the running of the islands services all apart from defence.

      Diego I wouldn't make these kind of threats if I was you when youve got nothing to back them up your nation is broke beyond belief. The fact is your nation didn't like the overwhelming superior force of the Royal Marines the Royal Navy or the Royal Air force thirty years ago so just how do you think you
      Would cope with us now? We have retired the Harrier Jump Jets that your Airforce didn't like to go up against when they realised that Harrier's were in the airspace and basically didn't even leave their airfields because of the technology on board the British Harrier's with the fact that the RAF pilots were a lot better trained than the Argentine pilots. We now have modern state of the art weaponry, ships and planes. We have just put to sea the second largest class of aircraft carrier in the world with the latest technology on board which is equipped with the euro fighter typhoon, fighter aircraft which just happens to be the fastest and most manoeuvrable fighter in the world, we also have drone aircraft that can be flown from 600 miles away and shoot at specific targets on the ground without missing. We have some of the most technologically advanced ships in the world. We are also expanding the number of ships in the Royal Navy too. The UK is opening up our ship yards to build new Naval ships. At the moment the Navy has around 400 Naval vessels on the seven seas. Argentina couldn't cope with 135 British ships could they so imagine the whole Navy there. Of course you know about the training the British Army goes through. While your military sits on its butt all day drinking sangria and using their rifles as walking sticks so good luck trying to talk up a war against the UK over our British territory that is called the Falkland Islands

    lol, i deserve it for being a lazy writer. but i do prefer corrections on collocations or true grammar mistakes. the 1st time i took a flight (got on a flight?) i told the steward my phone was out of line, instead of "offline", lol. even more, english phrasal verbs drive me crazy. look it up, for instance. is it coming from above! another: shot down, down? he was flying! oh, n da mix 'tween american n brit english is kind of a hell when u r in formal places.
