Have to say...it does work a lot better on my dual core Win7 machine now...no more stutters!...I'm impressed

Thanks Olham

I'll be rushing to shoot it down!

M$ are knocking out OS's like they're going out of fashion!....I'll be sticking to 7 for the foreseable

Not a fan TBH.... Future Snipe Fodder!

I had a few rounds left...So harried this Convoy on the way home!

Right...it's all round Shreds place then!

Erik is saying there 'may' be some more downtime to come..as it's been a real bummer of a job

Sorry it's gonna be a bummer Erik I'm sure everyone here will join me in saying thank you for the hard work you are/have/will be putting into getting it sorted

Cool...Thanks Pol...and well done to Erik and Co for sorting it!

EEK..... Glad you guys/Mods etc have got the site back up!...what went belly up?

Some of the site is still down...I wonder if it's a DOS attack?

Cormorants are the real menace on inland waterways these days!...they decimate fish populations...which is bad for us Anglers...but even worse for news Heron's...and Otters.

I'm with you on that one Olham...I've been like an expectant father...wondering what the hell was going on in there!!!.....thank god it's back up!

Yes...I would dearly love to see where they got the info from....If I went to visit any of them..they'd have to call a bailiff to remove me from their computers!

Me Neither....explains a lot

If not..we're certainly headed that way!!!

Great stuff Hasse...bookmarked!...thanks m8

Ah yes....being an Angler..I have mixed feelings about the Heron...but hey...they were here long before us!....I had a wonderful experience with a Heron once (no...not in a pervy way!) I was fishing a small pool in Canada with my son....we were on Holiday, and in the evening, after the Touristy type stuff...and while Mrs Widowmaker was cooking a lovely tea....My youngster and I...would meander down for a spot of dangling. A Heron shared the pool with us...which was quite an honour..as he was a local...and we were mere visitors!..... On one particular occasion...he appeared to be doing rather less well as we were.....in fact, he flew over to where we were...possibly interested in the fact, we were catching a few Black Bass more than him! Well, what else could we do?....the next fish I caught...I tossed towards him....it flapped about a bit....and this real hunter look came over the Heron's face!....I never realised just how a Birds expression could change!...up to that point...a Birds face...was just a face....but this Heron just switched into 'Hunt' mode!...it's whole demeanor just 'changed' It struck the fish...and within a split second...it was gone!....swallowed!....he sat there for three more Bass.....and then, soared gracefully into the air and away!....my son, who was 10 at the time...still talks about it!....it was one of those experiences that will live with us both forever! I Like Heron's!.....and fair play to them for having that insignia!

Well, she had a whizzo pair of Jugs...if thats what you mean?

Gentlemen...you have already surpassed my mere passing knowledge of Art.... sadly, I cannot claim to know sweet f*ck all about the subject...and would have even less chance of finding any information about Lady Butler. I just know a good picture when I see it...provided it's something that triggers an emotion within...after all, surely that is what art is all about? Sadly, I'm an uncouth philistine by my own admission....and were we to be discussing this in an Art Gallery...I would have drunk all the free champagne....eaten the nick naks....and been thrown out in the rain!...to get a bus home!

Indeed Sandbagger...I have spent many (my wife would say sad) hours perusing the skins!...a joy to behold....and I never knew why they placed them in different places, until you guys told me. I had meant to ask the question before...and it was Olham's post that reminded me. The AEF roundels were even closer still to the fuselage! One learns so much from this forum!...to hell with the Imperial War Museum!..... This is where it's at!

It's possible to 'go off' people Kel! Hey..if you wanna pay me Hasse wind...be my guest! Roger Wilco Olham...I'll do that! ( I actually had a wasp emblem..but I couldnt get it to look right)
