  1. The colour is wrong for the DBG used on any of the layers on my Rover 8s. I am almost certain that is Olive.

    Wheels on both Landys look like they are untouched and to me that means DBG and the body doesn't look like the same green as the wheels....

  2. Don't suppose you've got a Technical Manual I could borrow, Robert? :whistle:

     

    Tony

     

    The tactical manual is of little use, the amendments come through daily and before you know it all the rules have changed three times.....

  3. Why there are road signs telling you how to get to Hull?

    A least the Humber Bridge toll is there to try and dissuade you from going, so its not all bad news!)

     

    And why Cleethorpes is sold as a Seaside town, when it is stuck on a muddy river bank.....

  4. Ref: You're so Vain

     

    Ah, but she didn't specify who 'he' was, so if anyone assumed it was about 'him' then 'he' WAS being vain - I think:confused:

    But the are clues in the song

    Two solar eclipses ("Then you flew your Learjet up to Nova Scotia to see the total eclipse of the sun") were visible from Nova Scotia in the early 1970s, on March 7, 1970, and July 10, 1972.

    The line "I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won," refers to the Saratoga Race Course horse racing season held in late July, August, and early September in Saratoga Springs, New York. The season is frequented by the rich and famous of New York and other cities on the East Coast.

     

    Whoever He was owned a Lear jet and was flying in it on one of only two possible date, and lived on the East coast of America. and owned a Saratoga winning race horse or at least you had backed a winner, depending on how you interpret "your horse won"... Can't be many people who fit the bill, so if you have a Lear jet and you saw the Eclipse, and your race horse won at Sratoga, then I think it is safe to say that you know the song is about you, therefore you do have the right to be vain......

  5. Why they tell you how many units of alcohol there is in a tin of Tenants Extra Strength...

     

    Doesn't the name give enough of a clue, and if you are minded to buy it, are you really bothered if you exceed the recommended units per week?

  6. Why the evening weather forecast starts by telling you what the weather has done that day.

     

    Surely not many of us are locked up in rooms without windows or have access to time travel machines and might choose to go back to enjoy a good day or catch a refreshing shower....

  7. The soap dispenser you don't have to touch. What does it matter if you are about to wash your hands??

     

    And to get out of the toilets you have to open the door with the handle used by every dirty bu99er who hasn't washed at all.....

  8. 2) Honda's radio advert for their ATV. It talks about Ground compaction and the footprint of an ATV and goes on to say all ATV's aren't the same and wouldn't it be better if the footprint was "more like a Tiptoe"?

     

    No, It wouldn't! Moving from standing on your sole, to tiptoes puts your weight onto a smaller area therefore ground pressure and compaction actually increase.....

     

    Is this "the power of dreams"?, because that is the only place their kind of Physics could apply...

  9. 1) "You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you" Carly Simon Dec 1972.

     

    Sorry but surely the song is about him.....he therefore has good reason to be vain.

     

    What was she thinking when she wrote this?
