I'm not up on whether it's a good idea or not, but normal banking international money transfers are completed using IBAN/BIC numbers which you can get from your bank, not your normal bank details.
If I remember right, there was a scam a while back that related to some forms of transfers taking a while to complete. Money would appear in the account but not have cleared, giving a window to cancel the transaction and reverse the process. Make sure that the money is cleared funds genuinely transferred.
There's a lot online about money transfer fraud if you google it, and I think certain methods are more prone than others.

It's fine here, though I wish they'd do away with the zooming picture slideshow. It's really distracting when you try to read the text around it, and gives me one hell of a headache.

You're the sane one who tries to keep us on the right track. :kissoncheek:
God help us... We're doomed.
Doomed.

As a total cock up short term attempt to free of the plates, feed them with a good penetrating fluid for a few days and try again.
I totally distance my self from the last comment as it is the worst suggestion/cock up.
A big boy told me this and ran away. , Miss.
Wasn't there a chemical used in fire extinguishers that could remove oil from clutch plates?
Assuming the clutch plates aren't permanently knackered, if you could use some of that you could be up and running again without removing the clutch.

and it was made in "Bolsover". Who'd have thought.

Tell Degsy to put some long trousers on, a girl could get feverish at the sight of those knees. One of the dancing girls is ready to show off her ankles already.

This may or may not help, but I've switched back to the basic editor and I've not had the same problem since, so it looks to be an issue between the WYSIWYG editor and IE.
If you are having the same issue you can probably work around it by doing the same.

It's pretty waterlogged in the area. I'm not surprised they've had second thoughts, especially given the weight of some of the heavier machines.

I know there are a lot of Firefox supporters, but switching browser isn't really a bug fix. Some of us use IE for good reasons.
Heck if I was going that far I could switch back to gopher or telnet in on port 80! (don't ask me to do 443, my brain doesn't work that fast
)
Before you doubt, I have hand issued protocol commands in the past, using one of the oldest computers connected to the net at the time (I had a text-only PC RT at home and played on IRC without the aid of a client :nut: )

There are no stupid questions, but there are plenty of inquisitive idiots. The important thing is what you do with the information when you've got it
. It's nice to be on a forum where people share.

Same issue here. In fact it's just happenned now trying to post this. Auto save did not function.
It looks server-side to me. It's just this website that's affected, and I've got a reasonably clean OS install frow only a few weeks ago. All IE accelerators disabled. The only plugins/helpers loaded are shockwave, mcafee scriptproxy (averaging 0.1s) and and windows media player.
It's driving me nuts.

We painted a gun using roller and brush a while back at Duxford with some really good results, so I've picked up the same to refresh the CMP at home.
I've got one of the small cheap foam rollers so I can throw the heads away as they start to degrade. That's something to be careful of; as the paint goes tacky it can pull the foam off leaving a bit of a texture (a bit like corked helmets). Make sure you keep the paint thinned as you use it, and change heads when the paint on the roller starts to go off.
Of course, the minute you've started using the roller it will start raining ... ... and then rain every weekend for a month ... ... so you may be as well to find somewhere indoors to spray :angry:banghead:

Interesting stuff
Are you going to go and find the locations mentionned/photographed?

Get a length of flexible plastic hose,feed a length of string through it, tie a weight onto one end of the string.
Pull the string tight so it holds the weight against the hose, then feed the lot through the filler pipe. (weighted end first)
You'll have to judge when its cleared the filler neck.
let string go slack,so the weight drops down into the bottom of the tank.
Simply pull the lot back up.
Job done.
Now that is a simply fine idea. Thanks everso all!

Does that mean it didn't sell?

Is it Berlin or Bust ?????
Looks like a Barnes Wallace prototype?

Now that I think about it, I wonder if brass picture wire might be flexible enough that it will bend immediately with a small weight on the end.
-
Steel measuring tape?
That's a ponderance but I think the curve in it will stop it bending easily. I really need the same stuff but without the curve so I can weight the end.
-
Does anyone have a source of springy plastic or metal tape?
My fuel filler has a kink in it, so I can't dip a stick in to see how much fuel I've got. I've tried flexible sticks / dipsticks but they tend to be round and/or ribbed for flexibility. These have two problems
1) the ribs worry me as it makes a filing sound going in. If it sparks then boom and :angel:.
2) as the kink leads into the tank almost horizontally, I've no idea which way the stick goes when it pushes against the back of the tank.
I just tried wrapping one of the ribbed dipsticks in fabric tape, which seemed to help, but also dissolved in the tank leaving me with slimey black fingers.
What I really need is something flexible and flat that I can either weight the end of (ensuring that it bends straight down) or I can push against the back of the tank safe in the knowledge that it's not going to slide off at an angle or spark.

Corrosion tests use a salt fog test to enduce rapid rusting.
You could try looking for local engineering companies with a mini test chamber.

Are the silver things on the other side terminals?

I have to say, I'd be a bit nervous and dubious about anything that says it bonds into the metal.
What does it do to the metal, and what happens if you stop using it?
Canvas (tilt) tie downs
in I may be stupid, but......

I just picked up some cotton rope with the intention of doing mine. What types of rope were used in different periods?
I heard on the grapevine that ww2 would be cotton rope (I think it was another thread on here somewhere)
