Hi Chris,

Well all I can say is given a bit more practice I am sure Richie could do it in four seconds, and maybe less if I waved a pint of Trophy in front of him :lol: ! As for Lewis Hamilton, if he doesn’t in prove I will be righting to McLaren, and offering to putting my wife forward as a replacement driver, as she recons she could do a better job and who I am I to argue :roll: . I know my place, and it's in my garage with my Tiger and halftrack!

Hi Richie, thought you might get feed up, but I knew you would have to try it for yourself :P . As for the photos, don't worry my camera had a fit and I lost most of the footage so your safe for now! :lol:

Paul :wink: .

Thanks Richie,

Glad to hear you've replaced your track pins, that’s my next job :roll: I'm hoping to get there on Sunday, depends how much we have and how late we get back on Saturday night, it takes me longer each year to get over a night out, a year older but not wiser :lol: !!

Hi All,

Just a couple of photo's of today's get together. It was a bit damp but we got to run the tanks for an hour or so. I was really impressed by the Elvis's Sherman built by Clive who were both there. I particularly like the hinged top to give great access to the inners of the tank.
Thanks for the advice Richie regarding the MG and main gun flash :wink:

See you all in 2 weeks :D Lets hope the sun is shining and Paul has his KT and the Flak 38 all up and running. Nothing like a bit of pressure hey Paul :wink: .

Thanks Antony
