  1. I'm currently looking for some large magnetic chesspeices Queens Rook to front left wheelarch...
  2. Yep I enjoyed it... didn't really take much notice of the uniforms eqpt etc to be honest but thought it was very well done. I thought the casting of Daniel Radcliffe was excellent as he sticks in everyones mind as a very young man which emphasised the inexperience and youth of so many of those poor souls
  3. Got the BoB soundtrack CD but there are no lyrics on it... dunno if it has been recorded?
  4. Well we didn't get to the snapping string point quite... but i hope we did okay... they felt quite heavy
  5. What for...to soak the padlock on his wallet :whistle:
  6. I noticed that too, never heard it with lyrics before, a stirring peice of music
  7. Cheers all... had a nice day... apart from the occassional shower and the wind catching the poppies every now & then & whizzing them across the car park... still it kept us on our toes :whistle:
  8. "Operation Homeguard" in Ingleton, North Yorkshire on the 5th & 6th of July 08... This is brilliant and John & Elaine put on a very good event... A well attended, well thought out weekend, with loads to see 'n' do and in a beautiful location... Watching a BBMF Spitfire perform a display over the village in beautiful sunshine... magic :tup: http://www.hmvf.co.uk/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=38&topic=4846.0
  9. A good turn out, nice one was Lawson putting the WD40 in his hair too?
  10. As the C47's take off for Normandy in Band of Brothers you can see a road off in the distance with a white artic moving along it.
  11. Hi John How y'doing? Where were you on tuesday? I'll email you in the week Rupert (chief foggy bottom boy!)
  12. Woke up to pittling rain this morning but undaunted we set up around 9 ish. Squally showers and gusty wind kept numbers down but made the flags look nice... ecept when i took the pic :roll: we had a good day though and met lots of nice folks (including a Para and a Normandy vet). Came home damp n cold... but with a warm little glow in the tum from helping (in a very small way!)
  13. I don't run at anywhere near that much as its just too hard on a truck thats running empty most of the time. every lump in the road is a jarring for the old girl. The Norwegian cloverleafs currently on mine are of such heavy construction that even when almost flat they hold their shape & barely distort. I run with about 28/30 in mine... much easier on suspension/joints/ dental fillings etc :-D
  14. Is it still primarily in one bit or has the tide torn it to bits...? Its a brilliant find either way
  15. for that price I'd at least want it to have the right tyres on it, decent stencils and no nasty indicators stuck where the "totally restored as new" marker lights should be... oh and judging by the feedback ... at least a rudimentary grasp of the machinations of ebay apart from that ... great :whistle:
  16. Very good, the Spitfire one is excellent
  17. Oh no it was a real one obviously but when they needed to do the erm... closeup shots they used a model :sweat:
  18. The original large scale model of the Millenium Falcon used in all 3 Star Wars films was built using components from plastic model kits of the time & if you look closely you will see the rear engine decks of 3 Panthers make up a large part of the top of the ship... & motorcycle forks BMW R75 possibly... I'll dig out my ILM book & have a look...
  19. What was that abysmal remake of bridge on the river Kwai with Robert Carlyle A laughable scene near the end with an M37 which was supposed to be... well god knows what, a Japanese truck of some sort. It conked out in the story and was quite heavily featured as the guards messed about with it... Not to mention US airborne releiving the prison camp at the end, resplendant in their (just purchased cheap from Band of Brother Wardrobe Dept) M42 Jump gear.
  20. Frog in your throat? Suck on a fishermans friend *ahem*
  21. Went the day well? Watch it bearing in mind when it was made (42)... during a period of a very real threat of invasion and it must've been very scary... brilliant film
