Take the Willys jeep. And the bren carrier. tank
And plenty of C4

And remember that speed of execution and the element of surprise are your best allies.

Hoodares winds!
Good luck

Do they have their own zone now? Good Lord.

A woman once asked me "How do you view lesbian relationships?"

"On a fifty inch Samsung 8k, usually"

Fck Kahn, Fck London, Fck all the So called minority groups living there all happy this is ULEZ kicking in, but its ok if you pay £12.50 your fine to pollute the Area, what a friggin Joke! I hope many business fold or take the sensible decision to move away from the place and the shops and industrial estate's become ghost towns. Goodbye, Good riddance. Shame I wont ever be paying my respects at the cenotaph, but that's it.

Ah, here you all are. Splendid.

I managed to navigate across, and despite a slightly bumpy landing, I'm here, safe and sound. Well, safe, anyway. It's all nice and shiny and new in here, isn't it?

This morning saw me rising early (hang on, that's a bit "Carry on Matron", I'll rephrase it) - I got up early (not much better, but let's stop wasting time), and hied me unto Lymington, via the New Forest, which is starting to look as though the end of summer is upon us, vast acres of heathland are turning purple with heather bursting into bloom. It's a beautiful time of the year, many animals are out and about, although the donkeys are probably resting, as they have a busy weekend ahead, with the Beaulieu International (no less) Autojumble.

Lymington was grey and dismal this morning, I had a nappointment for a near-lowering, and then shopping for provender, as yesterday was, of course, the last Bank Holiday before Christmas.

And on that cheery note, I need to carry on and do some stuff. Somebody has to.

Paua, you need to get in synch with the seasons.
Doubling up on your winters can play havoc with your digestive system:

Far better to get your inlaws to visit you for Christmas, and then you can take Erin Dawes to Deutschland in Sommer. cool

Earlier I was just thinking that today would have been perfect for a repeat of the TVR "Thunder in the Tunnels" mass re-run.
Just for fun! driving

What would happen if EVERYONE refused to recognise Kahn's scam?

Been in the LEZ area for a while now and I must say I’m bitterly disappointed.

Just made it. I think I grabbed Bobbers glider by mistake and the weight was set all wrong. I've been airborne for about 20 hours....



or in reality got a call from work and told to report to a client, which meant a 3 hour dash back today...

Deserved more recognition did this hehe

Has anyone seen an errant glider anywhere?? I had to have 2 y'see, a MacMillan TAC50 is a weighty bit of kit along with all the assorted ammo etc, i would never have made it here if i had used just one but the other one has gone missing. If anyone sees it, don't approach it, i booby trapped the bugger before i sent it up.

Friday's quiz is going to be a bit of a mish mash as i've been away until today but it will sort of have a theme. yes

Certainly wasn’t a Hercules. It was a C123 Provider.
