Hi,

one reason for girls to join the scouts is because they can camp under canvas which the guides no longer do as far as i know.

Hi HF,

`Lemon sponge anyone ??`or just the pink sections of the Battenburger for some ??

Ashley

Ashley

Hi all

I also heard that the panther is for sale ?? any one else heard this

Ashley

Yeah well,

when you drive a real mans vehicle ,not one of them jimmy things you are allowed a few secrets. But be warned any potential thieves of the towel will have to face the newest member of the family whose sole purpose is to guard the towel. And be warned she attacks in an instant and chews stalwart tyres for breakfast !!

Nessie the guard (pup)

NB those are not my pink striped trousers!!

Ashley

Hello all,

Hi Neil,

very sorry to hear your sad news, when my father was in hospital (a place he rarely visited) i spoke to him on the phone (thursday evening) and told him i would be down on Friday eve.. "dont bother its only a bad cold, i`ll be home on Friday out of this place" but he died next day at 62 yrs old.

Himself a 25 year man R.E. many stories and tale of his service some of which i remind myself of when the anniversary comes around.

If he had wishes carry them out if possible,or yo never forgive yourself for not doing his final wishes

On the BBC - it must be true[/i] I am afraid not. The BBC are the world masters at propaganda - just look at what they done during WW2. The reason why I never watch the news or read newspapers.......

 

Hey Jack, did not realise you were that old :-D to be a WW2 listener on the old crystal set (according to my grand dad)

Ive hijacked one of your pics to go on another thread, hope you dont mind Ashley. :tup:

 

Ive no problem.

Ashley

MMMMMM... did not see that as i was in the bar at the time and it was quite dark, also i had drunk a few pints and was not seeing to well anyway

Ashley

Hi,

saw that my self very impressive indeed :schocked:. Must have been about 10 feet away when these pictures were taken !!!

Ashley

Hi Mark,

looks very nice indeed, just be carefull Jack does not turn up with his bedding whilst at a show if it is cold and windy or wet :shake:

Ashley

Hi all,

a couple of years ago on being sent on an errand to the local supermarket , spotted a young lady walking towards me down one of the isle. On reading the the motto on her T-shirt it said "I DO HAVE A FACE YOU KNOW" so i looked up, smiled and carried on walking by :blush:

There was also a young lady at Beltring which had " Touch me" written on hers across the chest :eek2: :eek2:

Ashley

Hi Bill,

as far as i know that is not DBG, but what is known as NATO green?

Ashley

Graham,

its your bike to do with as you please ! as you say "its a bit of a mongrel" well at least its on the road and being enjoyed :-o

Paint it in what markings you want to, if any one queries it you have the answer for them.

Ashley

welcome Simon,

there was one of these trucks locally here in Dorset recently (standing out side in a large garden) but i see now it has moved on,

Shame the other truck (chev) has stood for at least 3 years in the same spot.

Ashley

Last chapter of this part- passed the MOT yesterday OK (albeit sans tailgate - thats another story!) :-D :-D :-D

 

Congratulations Neil see you at W&P

Ashley

One thing is certain - provided I can get her MOT'd tomorrow and thus allow the wife to bring her to the show next Friday - you won't be able to mistake her for any other landie there - the grease marks on the paint are quite un-mistakeable!! :-D :-D :-D

Well at least she (the landie)should be waterproof...time for some wading !!!! on he off road course :-D

Ashley

Me,

i`ll be there Tuesday PM hope to see you all there.

Ashley

Rambo1969,

for many years i spent frequentig a coin and medal shop, and was fortunate to see many rare items in the badge and medal world as well as meet lots of interesting (and very humble) military characters and this is wher i saw an origonal LRDG badge, now long gone.

Like the famed SS helmets i see 99.9% are fakes

Ashley

Nice one Neil,

glad things are coming together at last :tup: :tup:

Ashley

Hi,

the term`peep` was as far as i know given to early (production ??) jeeps one of these vehicles was the `radio` style speedo/ oil,temp gauges. there was one locally buried under a tarpaulin for years and i belive it was sold and restored.......... but apparently the last two owners who have owned and restored the vehicle have met with serious accidents in the vehicle :schocked: but can`t verify this.

Ashley

Hi John,

jeep looks nice :tup: :tup: mmmmmm the wife keeps nagging about a more modern convertible than the ford GPW.....

aSHLEY

Hi Rambo,

anorigonal LRDG badge is much sort after in the collecting world, most 99% seen are fakesso make sure it doesn`t walk one day :shake:but i bet that 99.9 % of the badge collecting world have not seen an original and may not recognise it as such. But be warned for with out care one day it will disappear :schocked:
