Thank YOU very much, danohagan! We apprear to be a minority here, just me, you, Guzzineil and geedee have time for the king…
Forgive them King, for they know not what they do!!
π
No Hurricanebird, it’s not just you four….even though the King died before I was born, I still think he absolutely rocked…pure sex on legs :diablo:
~Waving my Elvis handbag at you~ π
Congratulations Ian, that’s great news π
My pet, she is really friendly. It is a cross between a Giraffe and a Otter.
Ugh! Looks like someone I used to work with…~shudder~
What do you plan on doing with it when it is finished? Fly it, is the obvious answer, but for what purpose? Something to bimble about in, or to take around the country, or…
(Is bimble a real word, or just a Moggyism? :D)
Self portrait? :p
π π π
Do you plan on starting work on it in 2005 Daz? If so, how long do you estimate it will take?
And will it be at Leg-ends? :diablo:
Just for fun:
Talking of the LWH, one day someone just marched in and helped himself to one of the rifles sported by one of the dummies and was never seen again. I believe the dummy was then given a replica of said weapon.
As a former MA, I had many dealings with some of the lovely anklebiters that often frequent Duxford. I think my “favourite” was the pair of Scouts who thought it would be great fun to have a go at the ‘Jessie Lumb’ (the lifeboat in Hanger 3) with a Yale key…Needless to say, I had them out of Hanger 3 so fast their feet didn’t touch the ground on the way out…Fortunately their leader was standing outside the door, and was none too impressed by the little darlings’ behaviour…
And he wonders why I don’t let him loose with the digital camera if I can help it…
Of course I’m not perfect, we all make mistakes, only some of us learn from them :diablo:
About as pathetic as my dear husband’s attempts…at airshows, an aircraft will make a pass along the display line, and then be halfway to Royston before husband has worked out exactly where the plane is in the sky…
Unfortunately I do not have any of his attempts to hand to share with you, but if I did, they would probably look like this:
We discussed a similar idea just before Merlinβs over Malta last May, it came to nothing. Snapper did come up with an original design which never took to the skies.
Ahhhhh yes! “Merlins Over Malta, Anoraks Over Cambridge”, complete with goat in RAF uniform…I still have it pinned up on my noticeboard in my office π
A (rather belated) very Happy Birthday to you, Steve π
How was the film?
“Goddamn women drivers!”
Thanks for your PM Matt, I’m going through the databases at the moment, and will get back to you with a list of material and contact details when I’m finished π
No apology required Kev…I look forward to catching up with you in the New Year π
