You wait till you're 60 you cheeky young devil. You'll have eyebrows on your ears.

You're only 60?

I thought you were a likely candidate for the over seventies.

Priceless one for the mantelpiece:

I just did a google search on that. I found it in twickenham streakers catalogue.

And also google found what it thought were similar images. It just goes to show how bad AI still is, this was the leading candidate



I strongly disagree.

My team qualified for the last ever Middlesex 7s in the old format in 1999. I said at the qualifying tournament that I'd streak at Twickenham if they made it. I had about 8 pints of Scrumpy Jack inside me there as well!

Fair play to you. Love the look of the official just standing there looking on. The look on his face is priceless.

Yeah, exactly the sort of untrustworthy looking twat'athon one expected.

Fair play, doesn't look as fat as I thought he would.

Wasn’t C69 talking about retiring on public pensions soon?

Looks far too young for that. How old is that photo?

He’s older than one year old, your grandson looks to be in his 20s.

Here's a recent one. Good, eh?

John Hannah posts here, cool

Does npr have a file upload facility? I note this is a local file url.




Plus I just wanted to repost it.

The Lightning, one of my favourite planes as a kid. There used to be one parked next to the A1 just north of Cambridge! The pilot basically sits on top of a jet tube with wings! Incredibly fast.

Sounds like XN728 which was left to rot but the cockpit was bought and ended up at Binbrook where it has been restored.

Yup. Was basically 2 Avons with wings attached. Its climb rate records were only broken relatively recently.

{EDIT}
Was this her?

Are you stealing scrap?

How dare you address the old gal as scrap

I, for one, think C69 would suit a slightly larger pair of sunglasses.

I used to go to the Leuchers Airshow way back in the day and loved watching the Lightening display - they would scream past the crowd incredibly low and then climb vertically at a tremendous rate. They were incredibly noisy, loudest thing I had ever heard as a youngster and both scared and excited me in equal measures. They shook the ground and my fillings! Loved watching them.

Sadly those days, whether airshows or simply operations, are long gone largely down to the elf and safety morons. The closest is if you camp yourself at the end of Lakenheath when they have a mass sortie of F-15s.

I posted this on the aircraft thread. If you put on headphones and crank the volume a wee bit, you'll hopefully have some memories:

The lightning was basically a manned missile, faster than most modern planes as things stand.

Cheers - It does bring back memories but even at full volume doesn't come close to the earth trembling noise it made when screaming past a few hundred yards away at feck knows what speed. Buccaneers were noisy too but nothing compared to the Lightening.

Yeah, me too. I think the Lightning was one of the easier ones to put together, certainly much easier than the Lancaster Bomber! Remember the tiny paint pots?!

Hah. A while back found the box with all my Humbrols in and was surprised how tiny they actually were from the perspective of an adult. Equally surprisingly was how they didn't seem to have dried out after all these years (shaking the tins).

It will be a variant of either Walking into hard things=bad idea, or Gravity is not your friend.

Came home pissed.
Snuggled up to wife in bed.
Kissed her neck.
Whispered her sisters name..
