Ashley

OI. Neighbours is my favourite series for the past 20 years or so..:n00b: :nono: :shocked::argh::box::readpaper::angry

We all have our cross to bear :-(

Ashley

One comment from the presenter was "we know more about the history of the Romans in Gt Britain than we do of its WW2 history "

How true is that ??

Ashley

Hi Guys (and Gals?)

 

Main interests are engines and generators, which was where I picked up the forum as I was looking for information on a BSA genny.

 

Peter

Hi Peter welcome to the forum,

how old is the generator, i own a Tarpen one which is BSA powered but probably later than the type you have. it was used to power all types of hand held garden machinery. Used mine last year to power lights in the garage.

Ashley

SOOOOooo Kind, (I think ) Ashley. :sweat:

 

You going to belters ??

Hi Andy,

should be there though the good lady has pointed out that the schools would have finished up for the summer by then, i have said that they will only get bored looking at military vehicles for 5-6 + days non stop.

I have had to agree to take them to Kent for the summer hols, should be there around M.M. show time at Faversham:whistle::whistle::rolleyes:

Take care.

Ashley

well I WAS going to bring a large roll of CLINGFILM......:cool2:

Andy,

you could always bring some incontinence pads..........didn`t know you suffered from that type of problem ? i`ll ask the wife to get some from work and you can pick them up when you pass (by) :shake::rotfl:

:coffee:

Ashley

I've just been lent a dvd "WHICKER'S WAR", looking at the wartime exploits of Alan Whicker with the British Army Film & Photographic unit, as he followed the Allied advance through Italy. Will let you know....

This was once shown on TV great programme i am sure you will find it interesting.

Ashley

Ashley

A couple of prints that may interest the Iltis owners, the first a factory shot and the second although not the best quality in service with the British Military Police in Germany

Part of the Berlin brigade.

Ashley

Being MSO (mixed services organisation) a post war unit may be it was converted to the drivers (under truck)spec?

Churchills Cents Cheftains, also Martian, CET, Commander, Ferrets Unipower bridgelayer , Saracen, 434??, Dingo Sherman, White?? half-track and more. (and yet another Jeep)

Always good to see (yet another jeep) towing an airborne trailer?

Ashley

Quite amazing. I find it odd that it is within Poland, probably the nation that suffered the worst under the Nazis that you find this sort of stuff and plenty of SS re-enactors too. The world is strange and nasty.

 

Tim (too)

Not forgetting Poland, Latvia amongst other European countries (occupied by the Germans) are best known in modern times for producing 90%+ of the faked German militaria in the world today (from Prussian through to Bundes)

Ashley

A good story, but should it not be titled German E Boat and not Nazi :confused:

I totally agree mark :thumbsup: as a Nazi is actually a member of the NSDAP National Socialist Deutche Arbiter Partie (sp)

Ashley

Had a bit of a get together over the break and it has come to light that we don't have any motobikes in the convoy this year. Anyone with an old Army bike please feel free to bring it along.

Give Hardyferret a nudge he may bring his along (fancy derss optional) :cool2:

Ashley

Getting back on topic here, AC Delco 44 were the original plugs that were installed, They are still available thru ebay US.

Ashley

Ashley

To day some of the Dorset MVT took to the roads for the final road run of the year. Though it was chilly the sun shone on the journey out to The Fox at Anstey.

The return trip was somewhat chillier as the sun had disappeared and i confess i was glad to get home.

There was a strange chap dressed in Red don`t know where he came from :shake: not sure if he was smiling in one photo or just had wind ??

Good fun, good drive, good company what else can you ask for roll on 2009 and best wishes to all.

Ashley
