You are not the slowest on here!!

Anyway...Quality not quantity!!!

I am obliged for the kind words said about me... :-[ :-[

I do try to help...Educate and Entertain being my motto!!!

BTW...Less of the "ol' " :P :P :P Aye thang yew

I would not put you all on orders for getting it wrong...I have no powers over the civilian populace...Mind you..I could declare martial law... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

"Jankers" is an obsolete term for what is now known as ROPs...Restriction of Privileges...In the old days (before MY time) a miscreant could be sent to do some "spud bashing".or painting coal black..alas those days are no more....

A soldier with rights??????? Whatever next! ::) ::) ::) ::)
One more charge and then be dumb,

Scrimnet, you brought my father back with with a bump then...
Spud bashing... it was always his saying,
'If I don't ....whatever... your Mum'll put me on spud bashing...' and he would saunter off with a mischiveous twinkle in his eyes.

I'm still smiling at the memory.
Thank you.

Aw thank you Paula .... I am pleased with it ...although I dont think I'll do that again ... a month is a long time for one pic ... even for me ..   ;)  I have used a bit of artistic licence for the sky and painted in my own clouds and some vapour trails....  I just hope Woolley is happy with it and Scrimmers doesnt point out too many faults with colours etc .lol ..
Poll ...having a rest now .... ;)

Stunning job with the chaps there Poll!!!  :o ;D


And no not too many colour faults!!  ;) ;) ;) ;)

The highest point of the Lanc, which you have as green is actually glass/perspex...

The props (including each boss) are all black with yellow tips on all of them...

I think you have taken some of the chaps shadows as cammo

Here's the best one I can find in colour...
