  1. I have just heard the rumour of kubelwagons and hanomags buried on Salisbury Plain? Any others heard this one.

    You could promise her a ride on the train to Portsmouth, as there is a nice purpose built shopping outlet at gunwarf quay (old HMS VERNON for you history buffs). Then you could pop along to the Submarine museum. Or similar vein, southampton, she may go to ikea and you could go to the Solent aviation museum. Supermarine etc. Jeffrey Quill collection. Or Bieulieu motor car museum, and then Bucklers Hard for lunch at the pub, and a visit to the museum there. Bucklers hard is where Nelson's favourite ship the HMS AGAMEMNON was built. Sorry to say, but i would think twice about the Bournemouth aviation museum, it will take five minutes.
  4. Jack, as you have brokered a deal with the Tank Museum for use of the forum, I don't think it would be unfair to ask them to sqeeze you in when drivers at ABRO are trained at the museum. They learn on the 548.
  5. A while ago, i was talking to a chap who had the job of putting a value on MOD equipment when closing down a site etc. In this case it was HMS Thunderer. He was telling me then, that british railway steal line was selling at £20 000 a mile. this was in the late 1980's.
  6. Had a mooch about Plymouth today, saw these in a yard, don't know what the trailer / trolley is for. Truck seems to be Gulf War desert colour.
  7. Bought some stuff at auction yesterday. In amongst was this photo of a Matador? coversion. Photographers stamp on reverse in Hereford.

    Ooh yes, that is a very sexy beast.
  9. That would have made a nice ping with the metal detector.
