I'll say Mosquito then just to have a go!

Ha ha more Northern types... excellent! Welcome from soggy Kendal

An aeroplane of some sort...?

Oily rag... thats it!

I walked away from my job nearly a year ago as it was driving me potty. Having a 3 year old and a one year old child made me realise i'd rather be a happy daddy than a nutcase psychotic stress head. My kids wouldn't remember in years to come that i'd slaved in a job i hated, just that i was a short tempered butt head! Ironically the department that i headed was closed and moved 100 miles away (after 2 years of management swearing blind they weren't going to do it!). Never looked back Sounds like they've done you a favour... probably dosen't feel like it now... but they have! And As my dear old Granny used to say... "F**k 'em... F**k 'em all! She had a way with with words did Granny!

Hey Steve welcome... think we may have met at the J36 layby when you took delivery of a trailer & I stopped to have a gawp!

Cripes! Still it looks good and has metal mickey mouse ears too in the first pic!

Superb article Clive, very moving. The bravery of those men never fails to impress me. Not to mention the fishermen setting out to rescue the crew... heroes all.

or someone with an original 1940's ex military stencil cutter...

Brilliant... wish I'd gone What was it like Jack ... *ahem*

Wonder if it was left as a warning to other GI's A: not to Pick up Frauleins and B: Slow down? Taken in Germany?
