Gloss-smosh…. hats off to all involved, she is obviously loved,well looked after and in safe hands, congrats to lightninglady99 and all involved I say.

Impossible to say without seeing it and what the intent and content is. My mother has survived two bouts of breast cancer, stomach cancer killed my father at age 67, 5 days off sick from work in over 30 years with the same company, ill June, very ill July, hospital August (a week after being sent home after a GP referral) , into the Hospice November, died December.

If there is anything there that raises money for research and supports the people with loved ones with cancer, then it can be only good. I can’t imagine that a well established company like haynes would do anything other….It has some good reviews on Amazon though (and check out the other titles as well)

Watching how determined my 9 year old was to beat me at his “Blazing Angels” PS-3 game, seeing his face when he got ahead of me (secret mission through the ice canyon) then wondering how I got so competitive trying to match him….

Beech Staggerwing

It was a way off but I’m sure I saw (and heard) one over Basingstoke a few mins ago?

Don’t ever recall seeing one for real, do they have quite a “growl” to them?

. My Brother and I run a few Gas turbines as a hobby

I’ve helped a friend of mine run an old Rover turbine a few times, EX-RN IIRC designed for firefighting duties ? , crank it up, add the hose, hang said hose over the side into water and fight fire with gallons of sea water.

Loud and fun and not that expensive to run either…..

Not on an NHS blame/rant, but a young child and a seemingly (without knowing the whole history) basic illness, I mean look at the poor little fellow, just leaves me shaking my head and feeling so much for the parents.

No rain here

Just sunshine, warmth (not suffocating heat) and a nice breeze which hopefully means the demon spawn, I mean my lovely children will sleep tonight for more than 30 mins at a time !
