    That is certainly true with the Telegraph, a picture of a Warrior IFV upside down was captioned as a tank. If simple things cannot be done properly think of all the subjects we know little about, all the misinformation that the press can slip in. . .

    Almost any documentary on W.W. II has a mishmash of film thrown in randomly. A favourite is a Vickers Medium driving across the screen.A film recently shown on Dunkirk had American Christie tanks chucked-in.

    Does anyone have any information on this late production Lipe clutch as used on Sexton and Sherman. The fixed steel disc is 0.942" thick. The disc has seen much service and has worn down to 0.266" . It needs to be recovered, so information on the original thickness is required. Regards.

    The Square Dealers, as seen on Coronation Street. The route to happiness 1) So, set up a 'museum' 2) Write to other museums and foreign powers asking to either borrow, loan or donate vehicles. 3) Sell off the donations or go one step further and sell the loaned vehicles as well. 4) Invest money in income reversible trouser bonds. To late its already been done! a number of times!

    NO! what you want is SUGGS, anything else would just be Madness* *For older members, Madness was a popular beat combo of the 1970s and 1980s, with Suggs as lead singer.

    I would suggest that you raise £250,000 which would entitle you to have a chat with both Boris Johnson and Risi Sunak. Money doesn't speak it shouts

    Here is one for the small engine enthusiast(s) on the site. I've been sent two pictures of what once was an engine manufactured for military use. However, there are not data plates or anything so what is it? More pictures may follow As Toyah might have said "It's Mystery!"
