Boooaaaahhh

Got a phone call, and lost the challenge to Graeme. Found the Vickers Vivid more or less immediately after TC's clue (have a list of who-posted-who-IDd )

Thanks hesham; the list is taken from somewhere in the web…..

Edit: Ah, checked the list from 2007 at source and saw that you said so already then

G'day/evening Reg!

(have a list of who-posted-who-IDd )
Crikey, getting serious mate?

Working in reverse I just then found it in a book, then found it on page 518 of SC (I think). Sad thing is I have no recollection of seeing the image before...old age.

Haven't really got a challenge Reg, I can make one later today...or would you prefer open house?

I know it's illegal on SC, but I have an easy AviaQuiz-like photo challenge if you're interested?

Alrighty! Not on Mel's list either....

(Just realised, David hasn't officially confirmed the Vickers. Sorry mate, apologies for the anarchy. )

Thanks, but let's let the Open House prevail. It is 1:35 where I am now.

Good night - nice doing business with you!

Good morning / evening gentlemen.

I can now confirm that Graeme identified the Vickers correctly.

I note he has requested OH, but since it's only 1723 in NSW I am happy to wait a while to see if he can come up with something.

Are you lurking out there Graeme.....??

I will, but have to go out first, my main windows open North and there are buildings in front of my balcony.

Looks cold, wet, and dark at Graemes' place, so he must be indoors.

I'm sure he'll pitch up soon.

Looks nice and sunny in Berlin, as it is here.

Berlin is +20 and partly cloudy. The wind has settled. A couple of days ago we had +14 rain and strong, gusty wind.

Maybe Graeme isn't going to appear after all.
