Spitfire Flypast
Metal Hippy - 30/1/04 at 11:27 PM

I am posting this on behalf of the one known as Bob.

It's something every one of you should see and it's not massive so it should be ok on dial up...

Should download ok, if not let me know and I'll mail it.

That's cracking.
Poor fella shat himself.
Where did you get that clip?

If it had hit him at the back of the head I don't think it would have done too much damage. Might have made a mess of the plane though.

yours, Pete.

A brillant example of one of the greatest Internal combustion engines being put to good use.And being used in a spitfire.


Metal Hippy - 31/1/04 at 01:50 AM

I got it from Bob but he wasn't able to provide it for the amusement of those on here so I uploaded it to our webspace and did it on his behalf.

I've got a couple of pics of John Dodds merlin engined car hanging around,just need a good scanner.

Not sure alan,we saw far too much of his daughter in the late 80's early 90's.

Peteff - 1/2/04 at 12:22 AM

There's a bald patch on the carpet that will always remind me of you.

yours, Pete.

Was she on something with Terry Christian? Channel 4


bob - 1/2/04 at 12:27 AM

Yep channel 4 did there best or worst with her,but in the end she was best remembered for getting hitched to a duran duran member.

And i think she hung around with someone called emma ridley.


DEAN C. - 1/2/04 at 10:59 AM

Trust Alan B to have a photo at the ready!

Bob,having once met Mrs Bob I can fully understand your contentment!
Just finish the washing up and then you can go and play in the garage...........
as soon as I've sorted the washing and ironing I'm going to remind myself what the Indy looks like!

DEAN....................


Peteff - 1/2/04 at 11:06 AM

That's it, the wild child era and The Word. It's all coming back. Terry Christian, I wonder if he ever got rid of that cold, or did he always talk like that?
Back on the Spitfire, one flew over here mid last year, low,noisy and fast heading south, very impressive.

yours, Pete.
