It’s rather like a small boy, who gets thoroughly smacked for misbehaving, so runs off, and, when he thinks he’s far enough away, turns round and sticks out his tongue.
At school, we had an annual “set book” to read, which was always a Dickens, and it’s left me with a healthy dislike for all of the man’s works; 55 years on, and I’ve never opened one of his books since.
Just finished “Hell on Earth,” by Mel Rolfe (aircrew stories of wwII.) Queueing up, for their turn in the bathroom, are “Gun Button to Fire,” by Tom Neill, “Siege Malta,” by Ernle Bradford, and “Victory Fighters,” by Stephen Darlow; one of the joys (though not for my bank manager) of visits to Kew, is the chance to go through the shop, and their “remainders” shelves; “The Many not the Few” is in there, at full price, but, when it drops to around a fiver, I might be tempted.

“War and Peace.” You won’t get through that before you get home.

Heartbroken with the news that the adored Katie Price is to marry again, and once more it isn’t me.
Just exhibit some of your renowned stoical patience, for 6 months to a year (at most,) and you’ll find that the “pre-loved” (sounds so much better than “second-hand”) merchandise will be on the market again.

I found a book in the National Archives, at Kew, today, which might answer your query; it’s “Missing Believed Killed,” by Stuart Hadaway, published by Pen & Sword, ISBN 184884659-2

A friend of mine opened a recalcitrant tube of super glue with his teeth, and spent the next 24 hours peeling solidified glue from them.

but theres none at all though, fabric covered or not. for it to be a fighter it should have guns lol.
Unlikely to be needed underground at Charing Cross, I would have thought. Before 1940, Spitfires had “covers” fitted to the guns and ejection ports, which were (officially) replaced by fabric patches in September 1940. The authorities would be unlikely to leave guns in an airframe with the general public milling around.
Several years ago, Ted Hooton found that the even/odd A/B serial/camouflage combination was not adhered to 100%, with crossover occurring in some batches, so one shouldn’t use the scheme to dictate the serial; however, the under-wing serials were deleted from 30-11-39, which adds credence to the dates worked out above.
I am pretty certain she was never actually naked in the movie. Just a tight zipped leather suit
I hate to shatter teenage illusions, but even the sexiest chocolate lover ages
Thankfully I can remember her when she could sing, before she discovered drugs (which destroyed her voice,) and Mick Jagger (who destroyed everything else.)
In the film, the zip did get lowered, but that was it; I felt like asking for my money back.

Now that you come to mention it I have a teenage memory of a naked girl riding a motorcycle in the desert…..unfortunately it must be from a movie! 🙁
Not in a desert, but there was Marianne Faithfull in “Girl on a motorcycle” way back when. Never did understand the plot (was there one?)
