• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

If you'd made it any darker I would have cried foul, Ralf.......:icon_lol:

Here's a nice wee sleek and speedy floater - easy, this one, but I like it!
 
Not only that, but I just noticed I called you Ralf in my last post - comes of old age - can't be blamed on liquid intake this time!
 
I just tampered with it - no clue now!

I'm off curling, so whoever gets it please continue. Just hope I get my brain unscrambled before the game !
 
The undoubted masters of style, the Italians.

Great cars, great architecture, great art, great music.

But their beer's crap.........
 
22 hours idle... must be spring - or blizzards - or...

Well, I'll toss this one down the tube to see if anyone's awake. I'd not be surprised to see it's landed here before.
