Hello all lovely fall day ..sunny and clear +5 still can't post from work

Way cool and thanks for posting My favourite AC of all time ..which, along with the Hurricane and Spitfire won the war

rather than try to post a bunch of pics ...here is a link to a flikr photo site where I have uploaded a bunch of pics. The ones from Hendon are not very good . The hangers are huge and not well lit and my camera flsh often could not cope. A couple of the really dark ones are of the famous Lancaster 'S' for Sugar. She's painted in RAF night bomber black and "sucks up" the light. Beautiful aircraft with a very ironic expression from H. Goering inscribed on her side. http://www.flickr.com/photos/barry_michelle/?savedsettings=2004659071#photo2004659071

Fall has fallen her on the rock........foggy, wet windy and miserable +5C

clear, sunny, calm, +8, and altogether verY nice autumn morning

Got home late last evening. Had a great trip will try to post some pics later. Now have to sort through 7 gagillion emails and search the couch for loose change to help pay the bills

that was a great song. RIP

Hello all ! Heading back home tomorrow. Been to Hendon and have pics ...went to another spot called the Shuttleworth Collection at a little village called Old Warden........just FANF&£kINGTASTIC........many very old WW1 planes plus a bunch of WW2 and all are in flying condition.......you can tell this because they all have bicuit tin lins under them to catch the oil drips. I have pics from there as well. Stag: Went to Duxford 2 years back......saw a Spitfire take off , beat up teh filed and land again Tried Old Peculiar and was not to my taste. Merlin: The local sells Spitfire ale..I have had ''several'' Donnie: sssshhhhhhhhh ..the wife is in the next room Had a great time and saoory to go back to ''real'' life. Talk soon

Hello all ......checking in from 'the mother country'.......many pies have been eaten and much ale drunk...hoping to go to Hendon next week. weather has been fine except for the lst 2 days but its clear aga in now. Did I mention ale ?? I do love Hobgoblin and a Welsh one that I can't say or spell but is known by the locals as ''Feeling Foul'' heading to London today..............hope to get some pics of Hendon..............back on Oct 4 Cheers

Beeee youtiful fall day.......off the the airport and vacation right after supper. You lot will have to do with out my vast knowledge and incredible insight for a few weeks I will raise a pint or a single malt ( or several ) to all of you

thanks guys ...leaving Thursday evening ..but figured I let you guys know before I forgot

great as always Donnie

Hurricane Leslie blew through here today. A bit breezy with sustained 120kph winds and gusts to much higher. The poor old trees are still in full leaf so they took some damage and there was a bit of localized flooding but nothing near the apocalypse that the idiots in the media made it out to be.

Don't get me started on the Avro Arrow. The single greatest F#&K up by a Canadian gov't in lving memory. I can never forgive Deifenbaker for that. But to bring it back now is a crazy idea. It's a 1950's design

amen

Wife and I are off to the 'mother country' for a few weeks. Leaving on Thursday and will be back in early October. Went to Duxford last time and trying for Hendon this trip. I'll have an ale for you all

he wrote and sang some good tunes

clear and cool 9c.... fall is in the air... the virginia creepers are turning red

You forgot about the war of 1812-14 when we came down there and burnt the whitehouse.......for a small fee we can do it again

I think Bell still uses that water buffalo for service up here

wow God bless him

Actually it's Labour Day

Bing bang bong boom.......didn't know you guys could speak Italian Will look at Stan's blank page and have also figured out how to "declutter" Yahoo quite a bit. My ISP partners with them so it may work out

I love my IGoogle home page...nice and simple with no clutter ...and only stuff that I put there....but of course IGoogle will cease to exist as on Nov.1 Anybody know of anything similar out there. I have no intention of using Google Chrome or any other browser.. I just want a nice clean simple home page I looked at YAHOO and it;s full of stuff I don't need or want. Any suggestions ?

Excellent as always Donster
