I beat my personal best for swimming underwater today.

I did 400 yards in 8 minutes 47 seconds...It all started when this busty blonde shouted to her husband, "That's the perv, over there!" :peepwall:

Lots of blokes make jokes about lady pilots, even to the point of being rude, and I think it's just so unfair.

After all, it's not like they have to reverse or anything is it?

(Sorry, Rach, Kaz, Sue and others. Couldn't help myself)

Last night police knocked at my door...holding a picture of my wife.

They said, "Is this your wife, sir?"

Shocked, I answered, "Yes."

They said, "I'm afraid it looks like she's been hit by a bus."

I said, "I know, but she has a lovely personality."

Oh! The sound of those Merlins alone, is just wonderful.

If you get there Neil, don't forget to visit The RAF Museum in NW London, it's brilliant, and entry is still free.

You'd need to allow a full day there.

Sure is! Thanks for posting.

That tends to happen to buskers Tomo.

Never mind mate, some folk are too lousey to throw a coin in the hat, you'll have to get used to that if you ever play down my way

G'day Ron,

I'm no computer guru, but if I have a photo with a large file that I want reduced in size, I email it to myself and am normally asked if you want to reduce it in size to email. Once received, save the file in your photos file, and attach that one.

Hope that helps.

Kind Regards

Planey

Well done Ron.

Bet you're still smling from ear to ear.

Always good when things go well after a lot of hard work.

When you get a chance, how about a few pics of your new toy.

Kind Regards

I sat opposite an Indian lady on the train today, she shut her eyes and stopped breathing.

I thought she was dead, until I saw the red spot on her forehead and realised she was just on standby.

The only cow in a small town in Ireland stopped giving milk. Then the town folk found they could buy a cow in Scotland quite cheaply. So, they brought the cow over from Scotland . It was absolutely wonderful, it produced lots of milk every day and everyone was happy.

They bought a bull to mate with the cow to get more cows, so they'd never have to worry about their milk supply again. They put the bull in the pasture with the cow but whenever the bull tried to mount the cow, the cow would move away. No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull, and he was never able to do the deed..

The people were very upset and decided to go to the Vet, who was very wise, tell him what was happening and ask his advice."Whenever the bull tries to mount our cow, she moves away.

If he approaches from the back, she moves forward. When he approaches her from the front, she backs off. If he attempts it from the one side, she walks away to the other side."

The Vet rubbed his chin thoughtfully and pondered this before asking,

"Did you by chance, buy this cow in Scotland ?"

The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned that they had brought the cow over from Scotland .

"You are truly a wise Vet," they said. "How did you know we got the cow from Scotland ?

The Vet replied with a distant look in his eye:

"My wife is from Scotland "

Yeaaaaaaaaaar Right! I wish it was that simple.

I'm in love with Gyros!

However, i've always had a facination for them and would love to own one of the many great designs now available.

They're just so manouverable and able to fly in windy conditions,which would keep the majority of fixed wings on the ground.

Maybe I shouldn't have got married ?

Welcome to the forums Ian.

As a youngster I always loved the Aeronca's, and can relate a sad story of building a beautiful quite large scale R/C model, only to have it fly away on it's maiden flight, never to be seen again.

The radio controls I also built myself, using acorn valves, probably not too many on here would remember them, as they came from old walki-talkies from the government surplus shops. Even Aeronca's were'nt old in those days.

What are you when hair starts growing out of your ears?

A married couple was in a terrible accident where theMan's face was severely burned. The doctor told the

 

Husband that they couldn't graft any skin from his body

 

Because he was too skinny. So the wife offered to donate

 

Some of her own skin. However, the only skin on her body

 

That the doctor felt was suitable would have to come

 

From her buttocks. The husband and wife agreed that they

 

would tell no one about where the skin came from, and they

 

requested that the doctor also honour their secret. After

 

All, this was a very delicate matter. After the surgery was

 

completed, everyone was astounded at the man's new face.

 

He looked more handsome than he ever had before! All his

 

Friends and relatives just went on and on about his youthful

 

Beauty! One day, he was alone with his wife, and he was

 

overcome with emotion at her sacrifice. He said, 'Dear,

 

I just want to thank you for everything you did for me.

 

How can I possibly repay you?'

 

'My darling,' she replied,

 

'I get all the thanks I need every time I see your mother

 

kiss you on the cheek.'

Not sure whether it's you , or me, that should feel ashamed.

Had a good laugh anyway.

Kind Regards

Just watch out for the women Tomo.

If a good looking young fellah like you, can serenade them with music and also fix their mowers when it breaks down, they'll all be queing up:babe:

Oh what a feeling he must have had.

I bet "Yee Ha" was in the vocabulary somewhere!

"It's a nuisance having to use two hands" said Loxy "but otherwise I'd never find it....."

Are you trying to make a spectacle of me Tubs, replied the village locksmith?

Thats so far from the truth.

For with these new contact lenses I made out of the bottoms of Tooheys twist-top bottles, I can clearly see everything from an A380 on very short finals, to the over-weight Sheila down the road that got into The Biggest Loser finals.

I used rain X on the canopies and windsreens, on the F111. (I spent 2 years in undercarraige workshop over hauling canopies).Also used polish to polish out small scratches, dont remember what that was called but. Used to take Rain x home and use on my car.

However as Ignition questions, do they also attract dust and other crap you don't need?

Armourall looks good on a dashboard but soon develops a fur-coat, not that it repels water very well.

I think both pilots, particularly the Robinson, did well to recover after this.

Another welcome Lionel,Further to what Pud has said, you could also be very useful at Natfly.

 

Had you thought of going?

 

Alan.

He may never get to leave the place
