It looks ace! Can't wait to see it

I have to wonder how many portaloo's we're going to see at war and peace flying the mighty flag of latrine availability.

Wow, that aero screen Morris is lovely.

A second thought - is it a "affirmative" flag as an opposite to the old negative signal?

Stationary stores marking on a packet of post-it notes ?

Good suggestion Lauren. But this is a white disc rather than a circle.

 

I should add it is not directly associated with vehicles.

Ah, in that case it must be emergency tipp-ex supplies for the clerks typing pool.

1 Section distinguishing mark on an armoured vehicle.

Nice to see you

Good luck with getting your Gaz!

Emergency stop flag?

Is it measuring brake distance - activated by the hose to the tow hitch when the hitch comes under additional pressure?

:bow::bow::bow::clap::clap::clap::dancinggirls::rotfl::rotfl::rofl::rofl:

 

 

 

 

It sure does.. Lauren, all I can offer is a drive in the Rugged One sometime...

 

If that could actually be called a prize...

awesome!!!

Nice one! - where did you get the t-shirt?

at least the donkey engine worked.

Dipstick;)

There's no need for name calling, just because Merlin got there before the rest of us

earthing/grounding? Possibly from a helicopter or balloon that can build up static?

or maybe a lightning conductor?

Nope Lauren. If it helps this particular device is made out of copper.

Hmmmm Is it for thermal measurement?

Is it a training weight for recovery from the sea bed?

Sky hooks to hold things up (always out of stock). Long stands for stability, often with a Long weight to counterbalance. Took ages to find them at the stores. Left handed screwdrivers.

Then there's all the fun of units of measure. Order 3 bags of 100 cable ties. Get 3 cable ties.... Order 30 screws, get 30 boxes of 1000.

Recording Measurements -

Speed in atto-parsecs per micro-fortnight (about an inch per second if I remember right - a parsec is 3.26 light years and atto is the multiplier for divided by 10 to the power of 18).

Distance in Light nanoseconds (approximately the length of a 30cm/12in ruler).

Beauty in MilliHelens (the precise amount of beauty to launch 1 ship)

It looks like a torpedo on top of Mickey Mouse (poor Mickey).

Is it a weight for pulling down a line? The ears could be stabilising behind aircraft or underwater.

This might help -

There's an email address listed of "collections@iwm.org.uk" that you could try and see what they say.

Yes it is indeed Tony. Got there in the end :-D

 

 

Although we are not quite at the end. One more headache for Alec. What is written on the red bars? Very simple really :-D

"ORDNANCE" and "STORES"?

oh well, it was worth a try.....

Stack 2 high, drop on this corner to open?

It's like an early unimog, but not quite.

Not fitted yet, but the belts I just picked up are 55" double badged as 18-8620-A and 51-8620-S

A quick google shows B51 as 54" - where did you find the reference to B51?
