Most lottery winners throw a huge party. I'll pick up a couple of barbies from the garage on the way.

It is! No cat there yesterday :-)

Hmm! You may have to have a rethink. Tenant with cat leaves place in good shape, those with no cat trash it. Perhaps your no cat policy is not foolproof. People who are kind to animals may be kind to infrastructure. :wink:

Watching that there video, two things, 1) he is punching above his weight a bit is he not?

2) Watch his partner near the start. The pretending to smile whilst looking thoroughly miserable at the same time then the fakest of smiles. Weird.

Don't know if anyone has seen it on the BBC News or not; or are interested or not. However, the Dakotas, plus a mosquito, spitfire and a unidentified bi plane, that have just flown the channel to Normandy & back, dropping parachutists over northern France as part of the 70 yr commemorations, (not celebrations BBC!) of WW2, flew over my house twice. Quite a sight & brought a lump to the throat seeing them over the Solent.

Given the era, Il Pirate, I'd take a guess at a Fairey Swordfish.

Probably, or possibly a Gloucester Gladiator.

Following a quick look up; it was a Beech staggerwing N16S. No, I've never heard of it before either. Didn't half look good tho'......

An American aircraft which must have come via lend lease if it had RAF marking. Perhaps it was this one. I have heard of Beechcraft but didn't realize their biplanes were used in WW2.

That's the same plane Monty, but done out in cammo green. Been watching the Red Arrows doing their stuff this afternoon over the Solent. A real nice day weather wise, & the father of a friend of mine on the news!! Mr Doug Buchanan-Morton. A 93 yr old hero.

Went into Tesco today, to the electronics area, linked my phone via Bluetooth to a speaker and put on 'Billericay Dickie' on at full blast and wandered around the area.

Childish ? Yep, but made me smile.


Maybe 'Derek & Clive, Live' next.

I meant it might be the exact plane you saw since it is still flying.
