EDIT: Apologies, WWII Fixated, saw DR and my mind went back. Obviously you're looking for something more modern, doh!

 

Glad some one else has blank minds

Hopefully getting a MT 360, can any one advise on the uniform/kit which a dispatch rider would wear

Sensible discussion.

Agreed, I always try and keep politics, religion, football out of any conversation, and the people i know both work and private know this.

Sadly, it's not good publicity for the MVT....and has The National Trust taken it upon itself to ban anything relating to the Third Reich from all of its properties, under all circumstances ?

The intellectual capacity of the complainant was demonstrated in this comment :- 

"My descendants are from Europe, and although I don't know by name who perished, I am sure members of my family did die in the Holocaust." "

I wonder if she's given birth to any ancestors yet ? 

 

Am I wrong but we're German prisoners of war held in what are now several National Trust properties?

Does this also affect the re-enactors from British history, remember at Beamish a napolionic display.

After a day like today cheered me up no end, any more

Seen on the back of a low loader West bound on the M62 today what looked like a ferret, from the brief glance due to traffic it looks as though it might be a project, was heading east. Any clues any one

So if I read correctly not for the modified stove

Thanks

I have just bought another No 2 Stove. On the wind shield there is a brass fitting which I don't have on the others.

Any ideas hat its used for?

Thanks in advance

Many thanks, couldn't get to it properly for a investigation

If no luck, have you seen this?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Clansman-GUYING-KIT-FOR-12m-CLARK-PU12-Telescopic-12m-FREESTANDING-MAST-/312193255522

More kit than you need but you would have spares or some to sell.

 

He says USD in Falkland War, think will want evidence of that

On a close look I can't see the pulleys either.

As it is being advertised as "A rarely seen complete guying kit", is it worth contacting the seller to confirm the contents of the kit or lack of?

Brain dead at moment never thought of that at moment, i need to look again at it

Yes saw it, couldn't see the pulley in the pictures

Thanks, never seen one before, I have a add on spout for mine so would there be a similar part for the USA one?

Unfortunately cant make it for 2 reasons, picked up 2 jobs which if pans out means can indulge my hobby of military vehicles

Hate to ask If anyone sees a Clarks PU 12 Halyard can they ask the seller to give me a shout?

I was at a museum the other day and noted the different caps, can anyone clarify

Looks like it is for sale:

Nice description of it on the site

Having bought from the manufacturer the shackles for my Penman Trailer, and fitted them, small victories are the best, I am looking at them and the shine, would these be painted?

There was a ring showing that there was a spreader plate so added one as well

That was true, but now you need a ticket to dig and reinstate, it is supposedly to prevent holes in the highway having to be dug up several times to sort

Strange my son calls my Land Rover a tank, think I could confuse the planners, wonder what he would say if I did bring home a tracked tank?

You will needs roads consent assuming the road and footpath have been adopted also you may need planning.

For the crossing you may have to employ an approved contractor 

Thanks, I am in Edinburgh frequently and down to Wigan area as well, but no roof rack, was hoping folded like a stretcher and could have fitted it to bring down

I assume for the description the frame will not collapse or dismantle to a smaller size?

And I have emailed my MP...

I don't think they can use that as a stop, they will accept the application and then make it invalid, my guess
