There's a new game to play. Start with a piece of text and translate it multiple times with Babelfish and see what we end up with. :((

What I put in (in English) was "Come on people. Do not make me join in". What I got out (in Spanish ;) ;) ) was....well you saw it. :p

I guess a translation in to Welsh would also be appropriate in some areas. ;)

Shall we start a new game - "Identify the aircraft Stevieboy doesn't know"

Then SB gives us a list of the 5 aircraft in the world he can't identify at a glance and we post pictures of those only :D

He's just TOO good ;) :p :))

The ONLY other option would be to ask Steven to wait until a certain number of wrong attempts had been made before he was to come in and steal all the glory!!!!!!

I think Cluny got upset [along with a few others] as he mistakenly thought the joking about TVOC needing flack jackets at the Shooting Day event was aimed at taking the mick out of forumeers attempts at fund raising - which of course it wasn't
In memory of a very dear friend - Mike Pearson

Very fond memories of Robbie Gilvary - DTs 1st Vulcan Captain who taught DT all he knew.

AT LAST.. one I know straight off the bat ... I knew my model making would come in handy one day :D

It's a BE2C as used in the TV series WINGS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wings_(BBC_TV_series)

They built loads of full size replicas and the esteemed model maker David Boddington made scale models :D
