    Warhorse.

    In truth I was disappointed. I know Daz will paint his face blue and white, climb that wall and head south with a Claymore when he reads this but I really was. It’s an uneasy mix between a sentimental “Lassy” style farm film with red skies at sentimental moments and some superb battle scenes that don’t shrink at all (without vast amounts of bloodshed it should be said) from the horror and violence as seen on both sides. Add a very contrived plot, a bizarre over cooked sequence on a French farm that just oozes sugar sweet goodness, and all in all, I left feeling totally underwhelmed.

    My girlfriend however, is still talking about it this morning and still gets tears in her eyes doing so, she loved it…..

    Cruella coming to visit this PM. Somebody tell me why I tidied up especially ? Wants to talk about number one son and his “attitude”, seems he strops at her and she can’t get him to do as asked, seems its my fault but if she chooses to punish him (fair enough) with lack of TV etc for afore mentioned behaviour, I have to as well.

    Ah, no, hang on poppet, if you cut him so much slack that he is up to 3 am (at the age of 12) and then next day he is a tad grumpy, that will be your fault and not my problem.

    Stocked up on the garlic and crucifixes, a few silver bullets for good measure…. :rolleyes::diablo:

    I seem to remember a variation of this in one of the old Air Ace Picture Library comics.

    I remember that, it was a Blenheim squadron in the Battle Of France I believe. “Himmel ! “

    Sorry for the slight thread drift, but I always had a pet theory that the “Rendlesham Forest Incident” was a nuclear accident of some sort, the USAF happy to have people discussing ET while they took away contaminated soil etc.

    Actualy the pictures showing the Mitsubishi A6M Zero, J2M Jakes, and the G4M Betty are in British RAF South East Asia command markings, and flying as part of the immediate post WWII Allied Technical Air Intelligence Unit.

    I rarely trust websites showing people dressed up in uniforms and toting guns in their own living rooms.

    Correct on both points!:D

    I have images of Bearcats, P-63’s, PBY’s, Spitfires, SBD, SB2C etc, as well as an “Oscar” somewhere all in French markings, but what do I know ? – I’ve not recreated the war in my living room…… 😮

    I have one….

    only 2000 made and lots of upset folk here http://forums.diecast-aviation.eu/showthread.php?t=16838

    as above, I buy these as I can’t make them for love nor money, its now sat with a 1/72 Halifax and 1/72 Lancaster in the cabinet behind me, I love it but I think some of the model builders here will not be that impressed, the undercart is too short and some smaller snags.

    mine was my xmas gift to myself…. :rolleyes:
