I was going to ask WK if he wanted one of his up, but he's gone.

Good afternoon.
If I'm reading the thread correctly its Open House, or is it (I say that in light of LM's last comment)?

Good afternoon, Sir. Yes it is, but the thread has been deserted.

Thanks RegDep....having re-read it it looks like we are just waiting on RR to confirm it is Open House.

Like LM, I have one ready to roll.................

Drawbarz declared conditional open house, the condition being that his post was correct. RR ignored that, and gave Drawbarz control, so I guess open house prevails. In the meantime, Drawbarz, RR and LM have bailed out, and we are here on our own. Why not shoot out what you have, someone will come in and pick the berries, I believe.

Good evening skytrain and RegDep,

It's been one of those days I'm afraid, every time I looked in on my usual breaks, the thread has been stalled!!

The present situation seems pretty clear in that Drawbarz asked for an Open House to be declared if he was judged to be the winner (as he would be "on the road shortly"). RR clearly saw his first post and declared him the winner, but unfortunately, didn't spot John's second post where he requested the OH.

To sum up then; the winner has requested it be an OH (and likely won't be back today to recant that wish). RR is possibly on the road too and is happy that he's correctly declared the winner and so has no reason to hurry back! I guess that David is probably 'twixt work and home.

That makes me pretty much in agreement with RegDep's last post! Unfortunately, I can't post without LM and anyway it's too late tonight as I'm off at seven!

Thanks for the Stall recovery Martin

Well done ton, something try at last! I've got to go in a few minutes, so I'll give it a quick guess.

Is it a Bristol Blenheim ??

If it is, then it'll have to be another Open House please.

The Bolingbroke it is. It's on the front lawn of a motel in Brandon, Manitoba.

So it's Open House as TC requested.

Thanks ton,

Is this one of the thousands of photos that you took on your recent holiday ?? If it is then none of them will be on the web and will make good challenges ! It was just those distinctive U/C legs on this one that jogged one of my few functional memory cells, probably won't be so lucky next time!

I've gotta go now and I don't think that RegDep is able to post at the moment, so to keep things rolling, you might as well put another one up if you can.

As its Open House:



Sorry Ton....just noticed the last line of Sinco's post. I feel I have jumped in here. If you've got one ready I'll withdraw this one. Ken

Hi skytrain10,
if someone told me the Lucas L-5 (France), I would believe him, so my guess is the Lucas L-5.
