If you're offloading the G940 Arthur, I'd be interested in taking it off your hands - My two Sidewinders are in good order but a spare or two is sensible.

As it turned out it was 9pm before I got home, so it's just as well we didn't make any arrangements! lol And Marc will be home for Christmas before you know it.

Bugger - I probably won't be back in Cov until about 7pm so it looks like our tracks won't cross tomorrow. I hope it goes well for you all tomorrow and that Mark has a great time at Uni here in Coventry - and that Mr & Mrs P don't go getting all emotional.

Henning Wehn is another one worth looking up. He appears regularly on the "News Quiz" and the "Unbelievable Truth" radio programmes here in the UK

Milton Jones & Tim Vine are both great - not aware of Stewart Francis though - will have to look him up.

As things stand Mick, Saturday looks like the better day but are you going to be in Cov until late?

"Talk to me Goose"

...Stings a bit though...

Given I've just this minute got home from work, no, I haven't ?

Interesting that everything they suggest is AMD/ATI...

I've also got a Corsair liquid cooling CPU setup - the Hydro H75 from memory - I wasn't happy with the performance of the 2 fans it shipped with (v. noisy) so I swapped them out for a pair of Alpenföhn fans which, while not cheap (about £20 each) are the quietest fans I've ever found for the PC. When the machine is not being pushed, it is completely silent unless you're right by the case (and even then I think that's due to the GPU fans) and even when in a game the noise level is still very acceptable. CPU temperatures are typically about 10 degC above ambient when idling and I've never seen them reach 60 degC under load. All in all, I like it a lot.

Squeee! Would prefer the razorback version though.

I used too subscribe, but it just got way too expensive. I'll have to go and purchase this edition though! Lol

My Gigabyte GTX 980Ti has two DVI ports and an HDMI port which seem to work together happily enough.

Her ID isn't that safe - after all, she told her company her password and they put it on the interwebs!

There's a lot to like in that video - loving the droplet effects on the canopy and goggles

He was indeed Arthur - he was promoted to F/O in July 1941. Interestingly he was shot down and wounded by Helmut Wick on the 16th August 1940, not returning to active service until the 1st October.

Further to the discussion in the chatbox following Geoffrey Wellum's passing, it appears my information was not correct - The surviving pilots who fought during the summer of 1940 are; Flt Lt William Terence Clark DFM - 219 Squadron - Blenheims Wing Co John Francis Durham Elkington - 1 Squadron - Hurricanes Wing Co Paul Caswell Farnes DFM - 501 Squadron - Hurricanes Squadron Leader J. S. Hart - 602 (Canadian), 54, 81 and 602 Squadrons F/O John Allman Hemingway DFC - 86 Squadron - Hurricanes Flt Lt William Robert Kent Hughes DFC, AE - 23 Squadron - Blenheims Flt Lt Ronald MacKay - 234 Squadron - Spitfires (Not verified - if he is still alive he is 108!) Flt Lt Archibald McInnes - 601 & 238 Squadrons - Hurricanes Flt Lt Maurice Hewlett Mounsdon - 56 Squadron - Hurricanes Thought this might be of interest.

Never gets old that.

It should be on the 'must read' list for anyone interested in the Battle of Britain mate - I can get you a copy if you can't find it over in your part of the world.

Stick to the book.

Quite agree Mr P. A truly great man.
