did any one ever drive the fiat gamine, it was a convertable 500 that looked like noody;s car. two people could pick it up and stuff it in any small gap. i'm 6f 1ih and drove it with my head above the windscreen and the steering wheel between my legs.

how do get reverse gear stevo?

i have fond memories of a fiat 500, when a young lady said it was too small

a newbie brought along a president hi boy and asked one of us to fly it, the instructor who was to fly it wisely decided to check it out before flying it all control surfaces were just pushed on no glue anywhere wings tail fin and and stabaliser were all bereft of glue. we think he had slotted the model together then used the covering to hold it all together

it would do the pilot a good turn

did the melting teaspoon trick to a room ful of teachers way back in the1960;s science teacher had made his own home brew melting metal, then regretted it when we got hold off it

just to confuse the issue, which side of brain controls which thumb

retired now, so sleep while its dark and play while its light (if swmbo lets me)

wish i could connect brain to fingers most days

play nicely, boys and girls each to their own this debate will run forever untill we start controlling models with brain power not our thumbs or fingers MODE 2 FOREVER DEPT

how about heath sitting on an elsan for a pilot ian, you got me looking at my t240 now its getting very nervous

merry xmas every one, went to club meet last night to pay subs for next year. we have a little bring and buy and a raffle as well, bought a very nice flair se 5 ready to fly with a saito 45 4s up front plane is a past winner of the clubs scale competion. cost me just 65 quid, my present to myself. also won a 3s 2200 lipo in the raffle lucky me

bearing in mind, all examiners are voulonteers giving up their time to do A B tests, using secret ballots is digusting. do the bmfa have a quque of people waiting to become ace's. i admire andys desire to educate and train novices. to compare judges with examiners in others sports is daft as training and passing anexam is not competative. i for one am most grateful for the time they spend to help all and every one progress their flying ability

hallie berry and jenifer aniston kits are very expensive, they need very classy covering, jimmy choo wheels and tyres,and diamond cowl trim, wing tips must have gold and platinum weights. completed models must only be transported by rolls royce or similar

swmbo was looking in the mirror, and asked can i have a neck lift? i said yes we can afford the rope she liked the joke so much she told all her pals on her forum

tesco's on line shopping, we spent about £140 it came in 21 carrier bags one only contained 1kg bag of sugar. bottle of bleach came with 3 bags. peter you could ask for 6 mags off the bottom shelf then decide to buy only one, proper ruddy impossible

almost no wasps or flies down here in boggy regis this year. we have got a butterfly keep apppearing around the eaves of our second floor flat, it was about again this morning. this happens every year so i dont think it can be the same one very odd, the wind is gusting quite hard so he must be having a hard time getting about

forgot about food colouring, will get some tomorrow and a tester pot of emulsion, and see what happens regards phil

just used poly-c top stick some ribbon union jacks on a foamie glider,and wondered if anyone had tried mixing poly- c with emulsion paint so as to applcolour and varnish together regards phil

well done bbc, i took my a test without any warning at a club i was visiting in wales, where my brother flew. the examiner arrived to fly his helicopter and my brother badgerred him to do my test. i got told to get my plane ready as every other pilot landed so they could criticise every move i made. the examiner had never seen my flying but asked the other pilots if they thought i was ready lots of nodding heads so that was it off we go.knee's knocking i thought what the hell its not costing me nought i will go for it. flew better and more precise than i everdid before and passed with many cheers from the critics god bless them

battery claim life is for half an hour read every day with out back light useless

down to a sunless sea is about nuclear war, and sam 7 is amissile attack on a plane over london both books are thought provoking as both events are possible these days

if you come across DOWN TO A SUNLESS SEA or SAM 7 both books are very good reads. read down to sunless sea in one allday sitting, could'nt put it down

my rant is people who moan about everything
