Rick W Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 I notice on page 73 of this months CMV there is an article about steam military traction engines. The author makes a reference "But having fairly wide ranging interests in anything to do with transport, not to mention dancing girls and beer". Is that our dancing girls? Has anyone got the chassis numbers of these dancing girls if they are not HMVF's own? Are they from the same batch, if not, what was the Ministry of Supply number and who were they issued to?:confused: Quote
gritineye Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 I spotted that and wondered if they were moonlighting, who negotiated their contract? Quote

Mark Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Joris has been digging out his cellar, so he let the girls go for a bit of fresh air. Quote
Great War truck Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 The Great Dorset Steam fair is most interesting. A very few brave people have preserved from Victorian fun fairs the portable stage and surrounds for the putting on of shows etc. After having preserved such things they then call on their wives, daughters and daughters friends to perform song and dance acts. At the GDSF i saw one of these shows and observed a number of young ladys performing the can can. Lost in my own happy world for a short while i realised that the average age of the performers was about 14. I then wandered off to watch the heavy haulage engines feeling a little bit guilty. I will get my coat. Quote
snowtracdave Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 I stumbled across this spectacle when I attended one year Tim - stop feeling guilty - the average age of that particular troop was was closer to 40 than 14 ( and the wrong side of 40 at that :shocked: ) Quote

Tony B Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 I'll avoid that night then! I was idily wandering down the Aldwych, coming home , thumb in place mind in netural when I heard this roar getting louder coming up behind me. I looked round to see a mob of middle aged women stampeding off a coach heading for the theatre that the Chippendales were apperaing. The male coach driver earned his pay that night!:sweat: When I was earning my living teaching riding, there was one women, well built who never wore a bra. I ended up get the wife to teach her, could'nt concentrate trying to work out what would wobble where next, rising trot was very spectaculer. Sitting trot could be blinding. Quote
