Likewise if I'm honest. I did spend a happy few hours trying to make it work with the tub filled with water - it was tricky to get the balance right!

Funny old world! I was living at 626 Streetsbrook Road.

Ed - I re-read Dave's note about the changes (thanks to Casy's prompting) and it appears that these sites are due to be merged therefore we can't create new topics in them. Cheers, -Don.

I still have fond memories even though I left there in 1976 after my A levels.

O.k. thanks. Yes I can view and respond to existing topics or Id've moaned about that as well!. Keep up the good work, thanks.

That stance is too sensible for a true 'Freak. Not suicidal enough? Wheelbase looks okay though!

This car ran at around 185 mph or maybe a bit more on the M1 motorway very early one morning. It got leaked to the press and led to our accursed 70 mph speed limit in Britain. 'Sorry Officer, I can't hear you.'

The AC98 is such a looker!

Hi Dave I wanted to start a new topic in 'Diecast and Resin models' but this section along with 'Big Boyz', 'Drag Racing' and 'Truck Parts' is greyed out in the drop-down list of forums to choose: Is anyone else experiencing this or has reported it? Cheers, -Don.

Cool - after a couple of glasses of wine it seemed like a relevant song to share!

Jimmy Dean would't have gone near that! The Beck car is pretty nice.

It's certainly an improvement, with amazingly few teething troubles as far as I'm aware. More logical once I got my head around the changes. Well done to all involved. PS Oops - I just remembered that Dave said 'Please, please, please, post any problems, or comments about our new layout in the How to Use this Board section, and not here in General. ' Sorry.

Maybe give the spiders a break this year? ??️

Thanks Geoff How's Mell Square looking nowadays? Cheers, -Don.

Thanks Pete, good one! I like this quiz, Mike, can't wait till next month! Cheers, -Don.

John Handley disagrees! ?

Oh lets make one of these: The owner of one of the above can look forward to being politely and firmly asked to go and park somewhere else at any Jaguar Divers Club event of their choice!

I like that, Roy. I've just read 'The Cruel Sea' about the life of a corvette and a frigate mainly in the Atlantic and on the Russian convoys in WW2, I'm currently reading 'Lilliput Fleet' about the minesweepers and submarine trawlers during the same war. All those men and women who took part in the war at sea were heroes, so many hazards to face not least the sea itself. Yours is a great tribute.

Thanks for the clarification - and kudos to Geoff! Cheers both, -Don.

Geoff - with all due respect, what are you on about? This car is a Vauxhall production car from the mid fifties. Can you clarify, please?

Saw them a few times, mainly at the Hammersmith Odeon in the mid / late seventies. Something else!

Ugh! I'm glad that I can! Ones an iconic legend and the other is a waste of materials The whole point is that it's forty inches high and the one on the left doesn't really get that.

How to maintain the 2 metre exclusion zone we have in the UK. You can't even get these easily any more.

Close,but no cigar...!
