  1. And as it's Plain Tour 1012, we'll be planning our future defence of Hastings from that Billy Norman feller, who will arrive in 54 years. :-D See you there folks!
  2. Miss Jeep. I put my video on youtube, then posted a link to it on here.
  3. Jeez, the price of a 2nd hand car! As far as D&B goes: http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?28670-7-62mm-30-Round-Bren-FN-FAL-Magazine And I'm still waiting for the mag' catch from them!
  4. Any help with the "AD" stamp? http://weaponsonline.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=l1a1&action=display&thread=906 According to the above link it's Aussie or Kiwi. The "UB" is BSA though.
  5. I'm sure that there's some quiffs with the outriders! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceLp-wuC5rE&feature=related
  6. Ah Dave, there were two fellers with glasses on that need a mention. (Sorry lads, names.). The Crazy Dutch were the biz, and also the Cube wench (She'll kill me.).
  7. Damn you Virgin media (Oi Branson, get your poop sorted!). I'm going outside, I may be gone for some time. All I wanted to do was upload some poorly filmed vid'. I guess that's what happens with Pete and 'tech. I'll get it up ASAP folks (Hangs head in shame.).
  8. Bless you my children! Oh, one of the best, "ere Dad, is that icecream?". From a young un on the bread run (It was butter, for those that didn't see it.). The Old man let him have it every time after that, lol (Sorry mate, I don't know your name.), but well done, he won't do that again, lol!
  9. Rosie, badge hat, OICKS, oh yes, lol! Kim's got one of those badge making kits from ebay. Worth a laugh mate!
  10. Ah, before it starts, stoppit! On behalf of my Dugout Kim, Dave, and Jeff, thanks to everyone that helped out! A vast amount of poor weather, and lack of sleep all round. Sorry if we got grumpy with anyone. Everyone on staff had a lot to cope with, other than the weather, it happens!
  11. Thanks for sheltering us on Saturday night in Cube land folks! x (It was honking down.) OIKES R US!
  12. Hope I don't get done for stealing off of the job! :cool2: http://i320.photobucket.com/albums/nn332/outdug/Misc/IMG_0598.jpg
  13. Thanks everyone for a diamond weekend! I'm uploading the video that I took, but don't expect much as I think that I should have switched the "anti shake" off on the camera as it tends to over compensate (Either that or I should have drank more beer.). Carrier Barry, your bit is on img 141 I think. It'll take me a while to upload the 76 clips on my clockwork connection, and for Kim to sort them out into a folder on youtube, but with luck they should be up by tommorow (Link to folllow.). If nothing else, I hope the vid's will give those that didn't attend an idea of the fun. "You allright Jack?" Bless you my children. Now go forth and multiply. :laugh: "Father" Pete
  14. Me and Dugout Kim will be there tomorrow Dave. She'll do her duty on the cookhouse as ususal.
  15. Bingo! I've got one pack working. It looks like it didn't like some of the batteries. Just got another 10 C cells from Lidl (That's all that they had left after yesterdays raid, lol.). At least I've managed to test my pair of 350's on receive, just waiting for more batt's to charge and all being well I'll be able to test them on transmit too. Thanks lads!
  16. I got all of the bottom contacts working by swapping the batt's around, so maybe you're right about the brand I'm using (Lidl rechargeables) not being a good fit. Mind you, some of them are now slightly dented by the lid contacts. So it could be the + studs on them are a tad short. Looks like the next thing to try is pieces of tin foil to pack out the + ends in each compartment. Thanks for your input Iain.
  17. Thanks Iain. I've just spent some time getting the screw connections working. Swapping the batteries around also helped. The problem seems to be the lid side of things, as I still can't get any power to the terminals. It beats me, as by rights it should be working. Everything is clean, and the batt's are new.
  18. Thanks John, I'll give it a go.
  19. I've got three of the C cell type packs for my 350, but I can't get any power up to the terminals on any of them. I'm using civvy rechargeable C cells (14 off) which are all charged and checked on a meter. They are all installed correctly, and the lid is put on the right way (it's keyed.). Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Pete
  20. Me and Herself went yesterday. Very quiet, low turnout. Still had a good time tho'.
  21. It's not often that you get to go for a wee with a U Boat commander, a GI, a WW2 squaddie, and with a Stormtrooper in the sit downs. Tell people that, and they won't belive you! Many thanks to everyone who helped my dad in law out on Saturday afternoon (He's on the mend and putting his feet up for a couple of days.). Cheers all, see you next time!
  22. Stove spray paint gives a nice finish. But, it comes off very easily, even after being baked on in my Mrs' oven.:laugh:
