    A rumour circulating wholesalers is that latest shipment of Corgi has been impounded because they havent paid for the shipping- apparently this is why stock has been delayed all year. The future does not look too bright for Corgi.

    Among the stack of production drawings / blue prints (some of you may have seen my thread, which will be updated soon) I have two drawings of the HP400, if there is any interest I shall post some photographs.

    Best wishes,

    Whats the saying- variety is the spice of life? Perhaps a little less moaning and a little more proactivity is called for….(dons tin hat and hides under bed).

    As for me, I think that there is plenty of variety on this forum, providing a wealth of information.

    Apologies for dragging up an old thread, i’ve finally got round to photographing some of the items mentioned above, are people still intersted in seeing them? Below is a taster, i’ve only gone through the Gladiator stuff so far. I’ve also got some blue prints for the Grasshopper and Gnu.

    I dont think it does rule out it being from a boat, if it was to be used as an outrigger it could be supported from above…

    I believe that this is an original section of a Horsa, certainly appears to be, pictured at Pegasus Bridge a few years back…

    In my most humble opinion, the cause of this situation i.e the war on terror, is religion. Over the past few months I have developed a strong atheist standpoint. Below is a quote which struck a chord with me:

    “Is it not enough to marvel at the beauty of the garden without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it?”

    Religion causes so much trouble, granted if people take comfort and solace from it then great, but when it gets to the point where people disagree to the extent of mass murder, surely it should ring alarm bells….

    Just my thoughts….

    Im with Moggy on this one, Kent 1940. Failing that, any of the airfields used by the RAF in France during 1940.
