    Oh and I pointed you in the direction of an online welsh language course on page two of the thread.

    Mark, only serious things bother me, this is (unless you havent noticed by now) not being taken very seriously.

    You’re surname may be Welsh but that doesnt make you Welsh I’m afraid. Try getting a UK passport “because I have a Welsh surname and I can trace my back to sixteenhundredandfrozentodeath”. Nope you just need to be Ethnic Albanian to qualify these days.

    bridge into Chepstow on the river Severn where they STILL charge your silly English asses to enter their fine country….

    I often wonder why you dont get an discounted entrance fee if you are an OAP? Anyway if I must go in I always “climb over the fence” via Gloucester 😀 (the more I read this the more you “sound” like the french soldier in Monty Python and the Holy Grail)

    Nick, did you find the data plate?

    Might have done, what do you want it to look like.

    Ahhh so your surname is Morris therefore you must be welsh, I get it.

    My wifes maiden name was Jones (no not THAT Jones!), she is about as welsh as I am Chinese however she tried to tell me she was supporting Wales when we played them at Rugby last!!

    You need to give The Last Samurai another go mate, its stunning. Cant comment on its historical accuracy though.

    the RAF have been contracted to provide cover with Nimrods

    There was a time when the only way to make money out of the Armed Forces was Rape and Pillage, times they are indeed changing 😀

    If I was in charge at the time I would have carefully taken the aircraft apart, crated it up (protecting it from the elements) and stored it onsite until funds were available.

    An admirable idea however isnt this a bit of a circular arguement as you would have needed the funds to dismantle and store the aircraft, which as Andy points out isnt terribly significant in the overall scheme of things.

    I have just started digging a pond in my back garden and have come across what appears to be a box wrapped hessian. Should I be
    1. Committed to an asylum for digging anything in this weather
    2. Putting an add in Flypast offering to sell the information
    3. Offering to book it for Legends.

    Do they regret buying them without a rear-loading ramp?

    They probably regret Fokker persuading them to buy them (effectively one off’s) then going bust.

    So why are you talking to us then 😀 😀

    (have just had a horrific thought, a welsh ghetto!!! 😮 )

    Is this one of the original KLM 747’s that went back to Boeing for the extended upper desk mod or a newer series 300?

    Cracking photos.

    Philip if they had tried that with the Beverley then it would have fallen to bits as it was rotten. In any case arent you at least 20 years to late in venting your spleen?
