Sorry Jedi. I thought you were describing having your knackers shot off.
Nice bit of fiction btw. You have got yourself a certain style there.

If you're wanna be dumb, you've gotta be tough?
Almost but you've got it the wrong way round. "If you wanna be tough, you gotta be dumb?" Thats how you get into airborne forces!
@Fruitbat; never been up Snowden! Not too sure about the New Forest. I know the area quite well and it's muddy, bushy and er, kinda flat
We've gotta take FT for culture shock purposes too. 
How about coast to coast via the English Lakes. Start with the guided tour of Sellafield then via Ambleside, Windermere and Kendal. Onto Richmond via the Dales, then give up at Catterick garrison and home on the M1!
p.s, when you were in the TA did they ever take you down to Lulworth to go BANG! with the Tank Brigade? I think Sid's boy is there now.

Climbing a mountain in the middle of the night? Rox, have you ever considered a career in the Royal Marines? You know you'd fit in quite well.
Before I'm too old I want to go climbing in the English Lake District with you and FruitBat. You'd love it.

with Jedi barely being able to remain conscious as he felt the warm wetness cover his abdomen.
Blimey! He's D.H. Lawrence tonight.

Yep, samething here tonight Friar. I feel for you and I'd like to have a go at feeling for the sisters too!

Mmmm.....if it's gonna be bf110tastic then I think I'll need a new CPU and more ram. Which means bye, bye good 'ol XP.
-
Very nice pics, Sweper. I can feel the warmth. Made the sunset this weeks desktop.

Hello Speck, nice to see you here. Wasn't Speckled Jim some sort of racing Pigeon?
-
Nowt wrong with kids though, is there Angus?
Come and join us for a few coops soon m8. -
Your good wife, Janet, must be anxious.
No, no Shadrach m8. Bg's wife is Helen. Janet is his girlfr ..............oops!

Thankyou for hosting last night, BG. A real pleasure to fly with the guys again. Hope everything goes well for you this week and we'll see you soon. You and the missus take care.
-
Take it easy m8. Looking forward to hearing those dulcet tones tonight.
-
Hmmm......would suggest things you've probably already done. Like checking whether T/S 3 is recognizing your mike, but I think thats in the 'options' panel and if it's crashing when you go into that.......
Or re-loading T/S to latest Beta (they seem to upgrade it every week!) and make sure you're not using any linked T/S display application like Tint--that thing crashes T/S for me and I gave up using it. -
Hello, AP m8. Will see you tonight. Perhaps we can get you on t/s2 and talk you through the t/s3 problems you're having?
-
If we want, I might have an 'in', (no pun intended) if we wanted to venture as far out as Cambridge...nice hotel around 60 pound per night.
Aha, now this sounds more like it. Cambridge is not very far from Duxford and since we drove back to t'Red Lion from the show I don't see a problem.
A night out in Cambridge sounds quite a laugh. I'm sure we could find somewhere to auction off Jedi too.
-
Why would they be charging such an inordinate amount of money?
It's called profiteering. They know there's an event on, they want to cash in. Traditional British hotel trade. Whats the rush? The Red Lion is still there. Treat the Holiday Inn as a flop house of last resort. From my perspective, as the only wage earner in my house-hold; add on the price of entry to the show to the Holiday Inn's attempt at extortion and for the same money I could fly to Toronto and spend the weekend digging Trout ponds with BG.
Edit; Actually, the flophouse of last resort is the Red Lion carpark

Happy birthday, Swep m8. Apart from the teeth very glad and slightly jealous to see your having a good time.
When you get back=Winter draws on!!!!
-
Now you know why I declined Friar and JP's very kind offer to kip in their room. My snoring can move furniture, crack plaster, undermine foundations. Wifey makes me sleep wearing a full-face crash helmet!
-
One thing I forgot to mention that Mr May was a two-time member of the "Caterpillar Club".
Besides the crash landing in the Mossie, he bailed out twice.
He managed to bail out of a Mossie twice! That is no mean achievement. Not the easiest of planes to escape from in a hurry. I seem to recall the navigator has to go first, whether out the door or top of the cockpit. Terrifying.
-
No need to upgrade that hardware, and there's no sense in it.
A bigger CPU might be the only option, but the investment would not be worth it, if it's just for IL2. Other games may benefit from more Cores...
A re-format may do some good, but, what makes you think about an upgrade?
Any issues with it currently?
Like you said, the system looks fairly balanced...
I agree. I'm running an E6600 at stock 2.4 ghz, an Nvidia 9800gt 512mb, 2gig of ram on windows XP. Frame rate is locked to the refresh rate of my 22" monitor so I get a consistent 60fps in perfect mode. Everything looks great. When BoB comes out I'm hoping it'll run it too. If not then I plan to upgrade my processor to an E8400!!!!
-
Also, be aware that carrier versions would have to take off with rather less ordinance than say, US Marine Corps versions from strips. I seem to recall the Marines could carry eight thousand pounders. That is four under each wing.
Finally...

Congratulations Jabo. One of my brothers has worked for the GPO and then BT for 38 years! Frightening.
