Bodge Deep

Hi N.O.S... nice toys Clarkat looks fun Like the name Is it cosmoline wrapped or laughing gas? W&P is now responsible for NOS passing into everyday use for me as we laugh so much at W&P that we've come to the conclusion that the beer there is carbonated with laughing gas... "A pint of NOS please tee hee *hic*"

A nice rig... glad you've got there... it's all worth it :tup:

Hi Colm, a fair few 'Dodgy' types on here, me included... You'll be in good company Welcome :tup:

Another Dodge ... good show Jeep Parts & Dallas carry a lot of Dodge stuff bulbs gauges gaskets etc John @ Midwest Military in the States makes excellent reproduction parts for 3/4 Dodges & Allied Forces for canvas It's all out there... somewhere...

& lastly but not leastly our very own Tim and James (& half of 101st equipment... more if James can convince his dad ;-) ) Go on Tim get a .30 you know you should :whistle: This is a great event which will be on again next year so get y'self along and say hi

&

Hi Andy, Yes good to meet you both too... At least the weather behaved on Sunday Going to W&P then? You know y'want to :whistle: More nice wheels

Well, The Dodge purred like a cat there and back singing merrily to itsself through its lovely new stainless exhaust... Bumped into a couple of HMVFers Tim (& James) Some of the vehicles that made it (pitured on the wonderfully situated, peaceful campsite)

You just never know do you? You could pass him by in the street and never know of the extrodinary things he's seen and done... I always find it humbling and a privelidge when these chaps talk to me when i'm in the truck about seeing them using them reminising etc... & I've lost count of the number of times family members of the veterans come up after & say "he never talks about the war" Gotta be one of the greatest perks about owning a Military Vehicle... Love the Swordfish My old man who owns quite a lot of woodland (stop drooling Jack) has a vintage sawbench he uses for cutting up windfalls which has original Swordfish wheels and tyres on it. We gave the serial numbers to one of the chaps at the TFC Duxford who very kindly looked them up for us.

Thats the great thing about these vehicles (of all ages)... they frequently draw you into fascinating conversations with fascinating people who would otherwise probably not speak... Gunner on a Stringbag... A brave man :bow:

Cd's on their way to you now Mrs HF thank you and keep the faith... See Jack people are rallying to the cause the coffers will soon be overflowing (I stopped off on the way back from the bank & bought a quarter of jelly tots, a sherbert dib dab and this weeks commando comic so were back to zero at the moment... but it won't be long... chin up)

Nah... major engine failure is my speciality :-D wonder if i can get the engine out of the dodge into the caravelle :whistle:

This weekend in the lovely little village of Ingleton (North Yorks). A great event & some nice vehicles... I'll take some pictures if the Dodge doesn't blow up on the way there :whistle:

Keep plugging away ;-) For every dimwitted employer that can't see past a peice of paper to the experience beyond, there's a sensible one somewhere (god knows i haven't got him/her though :-D )

Don't know the first thing about motorbikes but Wow that's lovely

Nah I can distinguish between elbow & bottom so I'd be dangerously overqualified for editorial duties :whistle: I do editorial graphics, maps, magazine adverts etc etc dull, dull, dull :sleep:

I have done some work today... not a lot but some :whistle:

Dig deep people All in a good cause :whistle:

Stings been on the phone asking what we can do to raise awareness to the plight... so with that in mind Mr J's gonna release a benefit album and hopeully raise enough moolah for a new front end

The pink one must be recovered... or should that be re-covered... hmmm :dunno:

Well I'm sorry that you think i've got nothing better to do with my time than mees about in photoshop I haven't by the way :whistle:

:rofl: :rofl: Very good Steve

My god, don't let JB see that he's already in a delicate state Have they released the footage of the cushion with a bleach bottle strapped to it yet Since my aborted Bolero mission *twitch, twitch* i've had a face longer than a beltring shower que but i've just laughed so loud i woke the kids up... thanks for that :-D

Don't forget postwar musical tastes are accomodated say for example... oh I don't know er... "3 Wheels on my wagon" okay... going to my room now

Nice... Some familiar trucks there
