Another Poirot fan! I'm in central new York state... closer to the Club House than you! (but still an ocean away) My kids have bikes. We had two goats and sold them. The closest thing we have to a horse is this bloke. His name is Mad Max, because he's Beyond Thunderdome! Like Uncle Sam, he thinks this armor is his. He rides better in it than he does the back of our pick up truck. When we hit the trail, he will either lay down on the floor or sit dorectly behind the driver's seat. He's a goof.

Wow! You guys sure are friendly around here! It's as though I walked into a pub and all the guys with beer in their glass come running over to fill mine up. Thanks for the welcome! It's interesting trying to decipher what you Brits are saying sometimes. Now, "Mews". I haven't looked it up, but I have the entire Hercule Poirot series and remember the "Murder In The Mews" episode. Captain Hastings parked his car in the mews during that holiday where you guys burn the stuffed scare crow and set off fire works. Jack Rogers Day or something like that! Anyway, the mews appeared to be little stables where people could pay a storage fee to park of keep their stuff. So am I close to what a "mew" is? The Mrs. and I often puzzle over certain British sayings or refernces made in the Poirot series. Our confusion adds to the enjoyment of the shows! What's that say about us? The more confused we are; the better we like it!:rofl: Again, thank you for the welcomes!

Hi all, Lee from the Alvis forums gave me the invitation to jump aboard this site. Thanks, Lee! I currently own an FV432 MkI and I'm in the process of working out its jitters. I gutted the inside and got rid of the horrid silver interior (sorry Brits- I can't bear it!) Also resprayed the exterior this summer. Ran it in the local parade and had it foul-up and quit on me! Ran like a dream the next day. Anyway, my interest in mil vehicles started with my interest in firearms and history. My focus is mainly on the Vietnam war and WWII. Also like chatting with vets when I can and folks with more knowledge than me (which is most everyone ). Cheers! John
