    Not sure when this is... but would like to bring my White Scout Car along - assuming this is big enough? Cheers Tim

    For those of us not in the mail circular, or unable to access Youtube... can you elaborate a little please? Tim

    Looked fun... And very wet!

    What about this one... Not British though... photo caption had it as "5th Indian Division - Sherman Repair-Taungtha 29 March -1945" I found it on this website http://histomil.com/viewtopic.php?f=338&t=3918&start=2910 Loads of great pics... no idea the original source... Tim

    I disagree Condor whilst unable to sail from Poole because of the bad weather (Force 8 ish I think), still sailed from Portsmouth to Guernsey and unloaded their cargo destined for Guernsey at Portsmouth to accommodate the Military Vehicles. They could have sailed with the commercial traffic and left us all on the quay... they didnt... so am unsure why you think we'd still be waiting? Tim

    Appears to be stored in a warehouse full of beer... Hopefully not too much will be drunk before welding.

    Spitfire sale

    Probably the only original part is the airframe ID plate!
  12. Packhow75
    Agreed - definitely rarer than the drab version. Ebay, but with a reserve... or good starting price... if you wanted to sell.

    They should be given useful work in the community - such as clearing land mines on the Falklands.

    Interesting review of the Assault Training Centre here... http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USA/USA-E-Logistics1/USA-E-Logistics1-8.html Section 3 - Starting Page 339. Tim

    See Tim's earlier post for pics of the bits that were saved... the rest he said went for scrap.

    Sorry if this has been seen here before - I did search for mention of "Titchwell Beach" and found nothing... Probably too well gone for restoration of spares? Not mine... borrowed from here... which has some interesting info about WW2 AFV ranges (Boyton and Titchwell) and other mil stuff. http://pdboyinsuffolk.blogspot.com/ Tim

    Nice escape hatch... if you ever find yourself not wanting it (unlikely I think) it's on my "needs" list. Tim

    When a dog wants to dump it does... how exactly would you stop it... pop your finger up its bum ;-) Tim

    Is this the sort of thing you mean? Photo caption is "Safely on the ground - a gun crew of the 33rd Parachute Field Regiment of the Royal Artillery running to unlash their gun" This is zoomed in a bit onto the load - the rest of the pic merely has more parachutes and men. Tim

    Hanno Thanks... Multibank may be a joy for the future... But first i want the rest done and driving. I have that book thanks and several other docs from various sources. Am sure it will eventually give me many hours of pleasure... When do we invade the Netherlands again? Cheers Tim

    Nice. Looks pretty good on the outside...What's it like inside?
  24. Packhow75
    Definitely!!!

    Something dodgy with the way this forum saves the message... they work fine everywhere else I post them. Trying again. http: //the.shadock.free.fr/Surviving_Sherman_Fireflies.pdf http: //www.afvregister.org/Downloads/M7B2/Brasschaat.htm Remove the spaces between http: and the rest of the text in both.
