Haha lookit that cute little face! :lol: and then someone gave it a CHOP behind the neck! What a brave little car.

Cheers Naki.... I'm so into this Assetto Corsa thing.

Meet Chelsea (& fish),

Nice..spent many hours around that track on f1 199 something

That's part two, the first part is on there too. Yeah Billy is a pale shadow of his former self. Thankfully we have YouTube

:cheers: :lol: :clap: :clap: :clap:

"Still, good problems to have and we are very blessed in all other respects..." Well said ...my partner and I feel the same ...we count our blessings daily.

Some links to GRRC which may be of interest./ Indeed... thanks for the links Mike, great read. Wonder what the future holds for Brendon Hartley? Maybe not F1, but a smart driver would surely stay in touch with Formula E?

:lol: I like the way you think Charl and CP

Glad you enjoyed it, Marty. I subscribed to the GRRC a few years back and I don't regret it. Early in the pandemic they set up their own YT Channel, which was great until YT wrecked it with their bl**dy adverts. As a member, I can see a lot of exclusive stuff. Must get over there one day, to see and hear those machines and smell the Castrol R. As you saw, they do race, not just demo runs. David Coulthard's comments after being allowed to race about 16 million quid's worth of Mercedes 300SLR were fascinating. :D

Cheers, guys. Speaking of supermarkets, here in Silverstream we have New World, which is only 1.5kms away, much of it through native bush. It is amazing hearing the tūī and having the pīwakawaka flitting about my head. I don't remember ever seeing a tūī in Timaru, but here they are plentiful, and hard to miss because of their call.

Your right there Mike. The Connies were nice , but for me, the DC-7 was the peak of piston engine passenger aircraft. Interesting to note that Douglas planned a DC-8 (piston-engined) about 10 years before the jet version arrived ....... ), but it wasn't a goer, and maybe that's a good thing. Mike the trip that those shots are taken from is just made for us. Start off in Florida, fly on the old lady to Puerto Rico, have a 3-hour break, and then on to St Marteen ...enjoy the spotting and the nightlife, and reverse the trip the following day.

I Will take that onboard Charl. Might shut the place down tomorrow night ...I'm home alone on Friday, so I can give it all a good rest.

... and Facebook promised that its privacy policy would remain the same. Too late FB I am owned by Google! :lol: VR, as happened with DVD's, will probably be driven by the porn industry. Oculus would have difficulty in erm, keeping up. EDIT: I went looking, and maybe the upcoming Pimax will answer part of the question.

Yeh, and Enzo didn't go to lunch in a chopper, and so on. I saw it with people who don't acknowledge motor racing as such, and they enjoyed it. The movie could so easily have been another Hollywood pastiche, but it actually avoided all the obvious traps. I also cut it some slack because they showed enough of that Ferrari, being the most beautiful 4-wheeled device ever created. B-)

Feathered friends... Marty that looks like a juvenile, bit late in the season? Magpies, Paul? Over here we shoot them on sight. The splash of deep black and brilliant white feathers is unmistakable in the garden! Magpies are masters of squatting in other birds nests, and getting their owners to take over their eggs for them!... :blink: ...! They are wonderfully proportioned birds, with their fat tummies, and long tail feathers! My neighbour's pesky Cats are always my biggest worries when the birds are around!.... :angry: ...! The fat Wood Pidgeons cant get off the ground fast enough! I love...

...uninformed riff raff *Cough* FSX owner Thanks for the Like Marty, that makes 9! :wub: Charl, I would rather have nine likes( or views) from people who mean something than from random clickers...says the chairman of both your fan clubs.

"THANKS" Marty :) I've done a few of these. This particular one I've published (and previously elsewhere too), but, there's others I haven't .... yet. And then there's still others, for the COMET 1/!A, I still want to undertake .... and similarly present. Just a matter of "TIME" ;) Mark C AKL/NZ

OK I did that forum thing where you read the first line and assume you know what is being discussed :unsure: Good to know the MIL isn't a closet ace photographer... My picture is what the phone reconstructed after I ended up almost flat on the ice cold deck trying not to breathe. It's why telescopes have that side eyepiece thingy. I see they come with tracking abilities now too. Maybe next blood supermoon I will, ah... wait a minute :blink:
