    I had a battery powered one that had a motor driven pistol cap firing mechanism. I loved it.

    My dad threw it against the hearth in a rage one day and it was smashed to pieces.

    Moody bastard.

    Bovingdon, love it but the misses gets fed up when I take the kids there more than 3 times a year 🙂

    First Sherman would be an airfix one, think I painted it in desert colours 🙂

    p.s. Bagpuss – I cannot tell you how glad I am to see that ‘Fat Sam and the Sindy Caravan’ was a misubderstanding.

    @Dezb – do you construct a tissue based runway before “settling down” to The Royal of a Sunday evening?

    @Bagpuss – how uplifting to see that a 39 year old can be so untainted and pure of mind.

    You will not be alone with that one stan!

    I dropped the catalogue once and it landed open on power tools at the most important bit.

    I still feel uneasy using an orbital sander 😛
