    The Fedora Lounge 4.0

    The lightbulb seems to be only visible once you log in, otherwise you are left with the eye searing light scheme. @ Big J , you need to use firefox as your browser then download something like ad block through the settings. Presto , no more adverts !

    Why were the Germans so bad at espionage?

    WWII Myths and Misconceptions (That Need to Go Away)

    Funnily enough my pal Kevin has a large skin section from one of the Argentinian Pumas that the Harriers got. He tabbed out there from his ship to get a souvenir.

    WWII Myths and Misconceptions (That Need to Go Away)

    Hi p51, Basically when Port Stanley fell, there was only one seat on a chopper back to the fleet where the sat terminal was that the journalists could file their reports. They all agreed to file a pool report and Max was chosen to file the story on behalf of all. When he returned to the Upland...

    Zipper Replacement Already?

    I had an Aero M/C jacket I managed to totally destroy the zip on before one year. Repaired at no cost, you would never know it had been changed. Similarly I ripped a couple of stitches on the windflap of my A2 after a few years, I paid the shipping but the repair was not charged, again a...

    Is this the worst 'Bay jacket ever?

    Put a zero after it.......and a one in front. Then beat it with an ugly stick.

    New Zealand, non jacket related.

    Thanks folks, all replies and ideas are appreciated ! Flights from here are loooooong, about 29 hours. Might break in HK on the way out for a day or so. The current plan is the last two weeks in January, first two in February to avoid the busy Christmas period. Flying in to Christchurch then...

    New Zealand, non jacket related.

    Folks, I am looking for some advice. We are in the middle of planning a holiday for January next year around 4 weeks, flying in to one island and out of the other. What I am looking for is advice from visitors and particularly natives; what are your do not miss moments in New Zealand ?

    Thanks Big J, but there are others on here who deserve the Laurels more than me, some who served in Vietnam and even a dust off pilot if I remember correctly. I was too late for the Falklands and invalided out part through Gulf War 1 with a busted tib fib and ankle. Never saw combat proper. A...

    Unfortunately the quality their tailoring is markedly superior to the quality of their invective. Is anyone reminded of the film In and Out, specifically the "Manliness Tape". Hot damn, yowza, what a fabulous window treatment. Thekiyote, I may have to steal your line, "The interior decorator...

    Time had mellowed how I remembered those old threads. Looking back at them now and seeing their latest response to "Mr Abomination" I see now that leopards really don't change their spots. I wish them well. Oh, and BTW, the earth is not flat, it is patently bowl shaped as you can see in any...
