    So with a 30sec exsposure how do you stop it being way too bright? Or is that the reason for the filter? :confused:

    Thanks for the tips, I must admit I buy a lot of food production equipment and always set in my mind a price I think it’s worth and stick to it. But then I do know what that sort of thing is worth.
    So what does anyone think of this (sorry if it’s from a forum member)

    Sorry about the link as it’s not the eBay thread, but it says spit?? Is there any chance or is it just a generic part?

    The Newark event looks great, I will try and arrange a trip down.
    Well unless a ‘surprise’ fathers day event is planned, I had better play it cool.

    I have noticed as said that nearly every item on ebay has come from a spitfire and or course is very rare.

    Just got my copy, I find it hard to belive that it was sat there on that beach in 1980. Just makes you wonder whats out there, I used to metal detect as a hobby and no matter where you go there is always history to be found……..no I never found a Spit! But did find the odd bit of .303 and the rear of a incendiary bomb!
    Oh and a RAF cap badge!

    Hi
    Got there at 10:20 and had a full day, my favorites were. The mossie ans Lincoln with its bomb bay doors open. The Valiant it is just soooooo BIG!
    The York and Anson (Yeadon ARVO built my local site of interest)

    My only complaint was in the older hangers there was a general aircraft description/spec and a specific history of that aircraft in the cold war hanger these were not there and I wanted to know how the aircraft came to be saved and displayed, maybe they will in time?

    But overall a fantastic collection

    Please feel free to take a look at a selection of my photos

    So will the new arrivals be kept as runners or is it too late/exspensive to keep then running?

    I would like to know exactly what he did but the London Gazette web site does not have any info on that exact date, I will have to do more research.

    Thanks

    I have said for some years now that VW are trading on past glories.
    I am a VW buff (saddo if you like) My mk1 is fully restored and worth about 3-4k not bad for a 29 year old car. But I would not but a new one.
    The last decent car VW made was in 1992/3 the last of the mk2’s.
    Dont even get me going on Audis and landrovers.

    On my 3rd ford now and they have been good.
