My Yank brothers do not appreciate 1/32 scale, so I am making about 4 pounds for each tractor which I paid 20 pounds for....ugh.....at least I have a lot of them.........

Wow been a long time since I been here.  I am looking for a good home for two MF custom made wagons that a guy John built for me.  They are heavy metal and been kept in plastic cases.  I could sell them here in the states but most yanks are not interested in 1/32.  So if anyone knows of a good home I am willing to get them back to the UK.....Rick..

It's been so long this post may be not appropriate so if it gets removed, that is ok...I will learn how to do it correctly.

Now true, too much Deere....but that is yank land......

This hard to believe but my wife filled up the Avalon and the price was less than 1 pound per gallon.......it was a supermarket where she earned points by buying me my sweets.....please refrain from any rude comments regarding  my weight....I wanted something for Christmas,  that would go from "0" to over "90" in 10 seconds...sniff she bought me a bathroom scale...not funny.....

hmmm did not see me posting again.....I forgot how to spell radum..ramdumb...no radiium.....dang been too long....anyway I spent half a life time there....if your into 1/64 than the 18.00 bux comes to less than $1.50 per month....hard to see how one would lose at that price............

My first post in 2013....Did anyone notice the nice quality of tractors and equipement?  Is that typical for Europe?  It's not in the area we farmed in......or maybe it does not reflect anything...

fools throwing away their friday night takeaway and Uncle Billy probably throwing out a few two finger salutes has earned the dear old chap a visit with his pharmacist...Sorry to hear about your pain Uncle Billy.....ps I found a dealer for you here who husband while he was alive bought a lot of old Britains farm stuff...I will try and get an list for you old man....

Probably overloaded it with the word Massey...

plymouth city council .whilst i appreciate they want to celebrate the olympic winners down here, why the hell do they have to do the open top bus trip and show for them at 4.30 to 1800 + thus shutting all the main roads in town from 1600 ,causing traffic chaos ,just taken me 1 and 3/4 hrs to get out of the exhchange in the city center and only the after our boss rang the council then the police and threatend to bil them for our time? ?. why couldn't they have done it on a sunday when the traffics less , less people at work trying to get home again , and why shut the roads nearly 2 hrs before the bus even gets to the stage?? its just happend live on the local news ,

Wow and I almost signed up to take that tour, then remembered who live in Plymouth.. Yet would of loved looking out the back window to see old grouch blowing a fuse and give him my heartfelt PPPtttttttwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

This is it very nice looking car.....Thanks and I assume price range would be 18,000 to 25,000 pounds?? It looks as nice as my Avalon..........

Inspector Lewis iv 2011 is on public broadcasting here in the states. He and his sidekick drive a dark 4 door. I been trying to figure out the brand of the car........Anyone know???

Thanks........

Indulging in a bit of nostalgia. for years I have been trying to track a film I saw at,, believe it or not, Saturday Morning Pictures when I was about 8 or 9. I remember so much of the film (it obviously impressed me) that I have an urge to see it again. I shall probably be disappointed but...

Today I actually managed to find it! Yup, the storyline is correct (as I remember it); it was made in 1954 (about right); starred Dale Robertson (seems to be correct as I know it was not Errol Flynn). So now I know what the film was called - I thought it was something "Crazy Horse" but in fact was simply called "Sitting Bull" what is more there is a DVD available. Customer reviews go on about poor quality but lets be honest it is made from an old cellulose film reel sixty years old!

I am now awaiting delivery with bated breath!

gosh here me thinking that it was just charcoal on cave walls. Your just a spring chick!

Sorry to hear of the loss Seanie...

I've just ordered my mother in law one of those things to hang around her neck... although I may replace the string for barbed wire... and remove the batteries :D

;D You are funny.....

Appreciate your guidence....Posting two threads regarding Marky being gone...what got into me .....should have posted in something more realistic "your favorite pet or something"....

If someone would be kind enough to send me the obit column on old man Channell I would appreciate it.....I do not want to waste 25 cents for postage for a Christmas card if the old fool is pushing up daisys........Thanks to anyone for their kind cooperation......

AVG is great however I am using Malwarbytes which seems to be working ok.....blocking anything coming from Plymouth Which is not easy

Who woke him up.......go back to sleep Sean........and I been on that island twice.....too crowded for me....

Not at this time but I am going to look at the family gen. book and see if I can track it down.............I feel like I am coming out of the closet here.....ahhhhhh it was 115 last week Aunty Sue, would of melted both you and the wellies......

We know there are different accents in the US, but from what I know of them (& I take an interest in such things) fewer of them considering the size and population of the US, compared to the size & population of the UK. There are a lot of places here where the accent is completely different in places less than 50 miles apart. I doubt there are many such sharp differences in the US, apart from ethnic/cultural groups within some cities such as New York, and those sub-cultures equally exist in London.

As you're in Arizona Rick, can I ask about the accents in the south-west of the US. We in the UK can easily tell a Californian accent is very different from a Texas accent. So how many identifiable accents (apart from 'Hispanics') are there in the very large, but sparsely populated states of Arizona and New Mexico in between?

Never heard errrrr being deaf kind of hard to say but I do recall hearing as a little guy and do remember what a Texan sounds like, and a Southerner too....I live in the Nw and SW depending on the month. We do not believe we have accents.....Even though I am sure you all would disagree...

Truth is my mother was not an American. And died never becoming an American. She, was born in Canada came across the border as a little girl and never went back......Her family was from England.....No one tell Sean please shhhhhh...My father was American 3rd or 4th generation with family from Bedfordshire...

You think you have a problem - on holiday on the continent I was asked if I was from Australia or New Zealand. Mind you several Americans who overheard said "NO - she's from ENGLAND". Says it all!

I would would venture it was the pink wellies that gave you away Aunty Sue.. No one from Australia or NZ would dare where pink wellies......
