sandbagger 1 Posted September 27, 2010 (edited) Hi Lou, Just seen in the latest Cross & Cockade that there's to be a sale on ebay of original WW1 flying artifacts (Starting with Germany) - November 1st by The Aero Conservancy - see link below: The Aero Conservancy Thought you and others might be interested.

Olham 164 Posted September 27, 2010 Oh dear, this could cause severe problems for Lou, like long debates, in which his wife may have the better arguments (...from all the things we need most urgently, these goggles surely are not.... etc. etc.), flying saucers (in his kitchen), and god knows what more! Don't click it, Lou! Don't.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sandbagger 1 Posted September 28, 2010 Hey Lou, Your signature reminds me of a gag told by a comedian we once had in the UK - Tommy Cooper: "Yesterday I cleaned out the roof space in the house with my wife. Dirty, smelly and covered in cobwebs - but she's good with the kids". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted September 28, 2010 . YIKES! Now I really wish I had a bigger checkbook. Pity though that the Aero Conservancy has to start selling off parts of its collection, a sign of the economic times I'm afraid. Thanks for the link and the heads-up on this sandbagger. And about my signature, it's a paraphrased line from one of our timeless U.S. comedians, Groucho Marx. I included a tip-of-the-hat to his character Captain Spaulding who uttered the original in the movie "Animal Crackers". And has anyone has ever noticed the "RACC" in the quote credit? "Royal Animal Crackers Corps" Olham, I should have listened to your warning. Now I must have those items. As to my wife, no problem there. I am always the man of the house, whenever she's not around. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
