Being a Grenadier, that would be desert beige, surely. 😉😆 Steve.

That is brilliant, still the best looking Rally Car ever to my mind & that livery with its relatively sparse sponsors marks shows it to advantage. Nice one Gary. 👍 Steve. -
While pulling hop trailers too & from the Kiln this week, a white 1989 Peugeot 205 GTI which spent much of the day parked adjacent to a nearby vinyard. One of only two in the country according to our rego website. Then, wending my way home after work one of those days, a Bright Orange 2021 Lambo Huracan Evo 5.2P/4WD/7 AT again according to the same website. Bloody spectacular, nearly put my neck out getting the rego. Steve.

Just a bit of musing here, but I'm wondering if the Mk I Wellington was the first plane to use the Pegasus that would fly for extended periods at some altitude in Northern climes & overcooling was feared, later found to be unnecessary? Just a thought. I know that doesn't explain why the Hampden didn't have this plate. Steve.

I had a bacon & egg sandwich for lunch today. I've yet to find an occasion when a bacon sandwich wasn't improved by slipping a fried egg in with it. Steve.

Nicely done Alex, you've taken an older kit & brought it right up to date & made it look very smart. 👍 Steve. -

stevehnz replied to AdrianMF's topic in FROG Squad II GB
A truly wonderful thread here. I hadn't been by for what seemed like a couple of days but was over a week & there was 3 pages of modelling treats waiting for me. Brilliant progress with this Adrian, I think your engine looks just fine in the best meaning of that, the rest of it is pretty good too. 👍 Steve.- 143 replies

Or not available there anymore. Any chance of a reprint or paperback edition, I'd be interested, remaining stock seems to have discovered the inflationary pressures of OOP. Steve.

Meng Rolls Royce Armoured Car Desert Patrol Vignette
stevehnz replied to Gordon J's topic in Ready For Inspection - Dioramas
It is possibly a bit of a hybrid, in that, while the turret may be incorrect, the wheels are correct for a RR but not a Fordson afaik. Are we sure that all the II Hussars cars had the modified turret? Steve.- 11 replies

I had an experience with spells of vertigo , probably 20 years plus now. It would come on without warning & ranged from feeling a bit unsteady as I walked, half a step behind myself I called it, to full blown dizziness & nausea. I was prescribed Stemitil, an anti nausea tablet that worked very well for me. Gradually I got over it - haven't had anything like it for ages. Nothing ever showed in tests. Scary though & I have huge sympathy for those afflicted with it. Steve.

That has come up stunningly well. I feel a sudden wave of nostalgia coming over me. Steve.

The Interesting Bits by Justin Pollard, one of the researchers for QI, a book my son picked up at an op shop but I started reading. I'm very much enjoying it in a slightly queasy way, there have been some very weird & repulsive people through history. Steve.
