I know what a Sea Vixen is, but I’ve no intention of finding out what Red Bull is.
As I said before, if that’s what it takes to keep her flying, so be it.
Nice to see one at Newark today in a proper colour scheme though.
As long as somebody pulls us out, they can do what they like.

Still not keen but looks better than I’d hoped.
I’m well out of my depth here.
Sorry if this seems a bit of a hijack.
The UK and the US are quite obviously democracies.
However, if the 5 stated criteria are applied, the UK fails comfortably.
2. We never elect a leader.
5. Freedom of information is oft trumpeted but totally ignored.
We regularly have a government elected by a minority vote. Admittedly it’s a sizeable minority but it doesn’t change the situation. It sems to me the problem is, the system is known to be flawed but nobody knows a better one.
We could try PR, as espoused by the Liberal Democrats, and have a new government every few months like the Italians I suppose.
As a fairly convinced monarchist I don’t want to elect a president. What I want is a government that does what the people want and that very rarely happens. Politicians ALL think “I know better” and couldn’t care less what the electorate wants or thinks.
On that basis, there isn’t a democracy anywhere in the world.

To my shame, I’ve never been to a military cemetery, here or abroad.
Obviously seen pictures and on TV loads of times. The border enclosing the two gaves looks unusual.
Is there a reason for it?
Thanks, Fluffy, I hoped you’d see it.
True, but they were several feet out along the wings, not co-axial.
If you really want to play silly b*****s, you could try the relevant bits from a TR3 or TR4!

I’m impressed!
Yes, Ginetta G26 which I’ve now had for 12 years.
Engine’s a 2 litre Pinto, mildly breathed on. Gas-flowed and ported, Piper fast road cam, four-branch, Lumenition,K&N filter but standard carb for tractability.
A Fergie would be nice but I don’t want to live in the shed.

As you say, the DeLorean was basically a kit car.
I daren’t get involved with even looking at ground equipment, though I do keep wondering what I could use a Fergie for.
I have enough trouble with general junk and cars.
Attached is not mine, mine’s going back on the road in a week or two.
There’s another one coming in the next month or so as well.
Good job we’re not married, otherwise I might not be for long!
