Simon Webb Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 All, I have been posting messages, and I didn't spot this introduction thread I think an introduction is overdue, so apologies to everybody. I am Simon and I have been Aeromodelling for 15 years. My Dad is also an aeromodeller and lives in Pembrokeshire. I am up here in North Wales, and I am an active member of the Delyn Model Flying Club in Caerwys. You might have heard of Alex Whittaker?! and crash Parry? They are clubmates. I have a workshop here at home where I do all of my building, and my favourite types of models are the classic 40 size sports designs. Peter Miller is one of my fav designers and I have a list of his designs to build soon. In additon to this, I also do plastic aviation modelling. I just can't get enough of model aircraft I am also a subscriber of RCM&E Anyway that's me! Nice to meet everybody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename-John Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Posted by bouncebouncecrunch on 06/11/2012 00:16:00: G'day Simon, nice models. What about "Wrexham" club?? hehehehe, good name for a model flying club. Ey ? Its the Wrexham Model Aeroplane club, but id have thought that bit was obvious so I omitted it for simplicity And whats the difference between me saying that and BEB saying he was in the Wirral club ?

Martin Harris - Moderator Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 (Inspired by BBC's comment, I think I can just about get away with this on the forum) Yesterday morning, little Johnny's teacher asked the class if they'd had any fireworks over the weekend, The nice little girl at the front of the class said that her mother had given them sparklers and her father had let off some pretty coloured fireworks. A little boy said that he'd really enjoyed watching rockets and catherine wheels and another had enjoyed some that screeched and banged safely up in the air and the rest of the class had similar tales to tell. Eventually, and with some trepidation, she got round to the back of the class and reluctantly asked little Johnny the same question. Little Johnny said, "Miss, me and my mates had the best weekend ever - we got bangers and stuffed them up chicken's ars..." Cutting him off in mid flow she quickly corrected him and said, "Johnny, really!...you mean rectum". "Rectum Miss?", said Johnny, "Rectum? - We blew them to bloomin' bits!"

fly boy3 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Pleased to meet you Simon, you seem have most of the credentials to be an aeromodeller. You like building, and flying ic and electric. All you need now is a sense of humour to enjoy this great forum. Ha Ha. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Webb Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 Hi Fly Boy People get mad at me because I can never be serious....so no worries on the humour front Everybody hates a cocky newbie, so I will let myself settle in before I crack the gags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
