Photobucket is working for me though
First time i ve used it since they changed the home page. Symptom is that, after clicking on the Upload button it ( eventually) comes back with a "website not found" message. Any other sufferers - it may be an AOL problem - it often is.

I had all sorts of problems when they changed the website - in my view for the worse! However although I had an upload problem it was that it kept seizing up and would not access "My Pictures". I've not had the "website not found" message. It may be an AOL issue as I know (having been a previous user of AOL) that there can be conflicts with certain programmes.
Not sure what to suggest.

Back safe and okay
Welcome back mate. Just beat the snow which is about to hit LHR now. Must have already had some as I see they are publishing breaking action on the actuals. LGW and BOH both closed due snow.

The Photobucket issue is a problem one11 has. Rest of us are (hopefully) ok!

Good afternoon all,

Your latest looks like the McDaneld Romair of 1927 LM ?

lucky guess on the engine type and was the second one I looked at!!

My first time on since last week, very busy, on ond off site here, sodding cold but no snow to speak of, but can see a lot on the higher ground not too far away.

Welcome back Martin, bet it was warmer where you were and thanks to Mel for his invaluable work on the lists

McDaneld Romair of 1927 - sure is Trevor.

Your control - I think I have one of yours ready. Please standby.

I think it's 035 - am I correct?

Thanks David,

You should have two, the last had a query about some lines which were MG mountings, that would be better, but 035 is fine if it's not finished.

Actually I've flown with them a few times internally and they are very good. They are also my main customer (since 1994)!

Welcome back Martin, bet it was warmer where you were
Yes, but the down side is the dust, noise and smell!!! (Mumbai)

You're right there mate; or at least it's made them all bugger off, must be something I said

I'm off in about an hour and a half, so if there's no takers I'll let you have the info afore I go (that's assuming you're OK to take control tonight)!

OK mate, but only until about 2130, cuz I left early for work this morning and am now getting tired.

Three inches of snow here, but put Merc into traction control winter mode.

Piece of piss to drive - GERMAN engineering.......

Ditto here mate, but I do find the large yellow warning light a bit annoying, when it flashes to tell me 'tiz a bit slippery!!
