We better make sure that Scott the webmaster has a full glass, after all, he's being terribly hospitable giving all us refugees a place to gather out of the cold.

Have a beer Scott :drinkers:

Cheers :partyman:

A pint of Spitfire...now that would be nice.

So, plenty of emoticons but you can't upload photos directly. I think I prefer the photo uploads.

And you lot are correct...God help us if Anna ever finds this place.

:bear:

Why the :bear: bear Von P? Well, you'll have to ask the Canadians that. Presumably there are times that only a bear will do... Notie there's no Roo, nor Kiwi, nor an Umberella for the Pommie members.

(Ah, my local Canadian tells me that it's a requirement to have a bear emoticon. It's just considered the bear necessity. :roll: )

Ever feel like the local whiskey drinking biker pubs closed for a week and they've all come into your own bar? MY Champagne! Gerrrooffff!

Cheers

Hic.

Blimey, there's some serious smiley-overdoses going on here tonight. Are you SURE Anna's not here...? :wink:

Had a rather cryptic message from young Snapper, via a text this evening. Something about being too busy to notice the FP forum's gone because he's faffing around with gun cameras. Odd chap.

So Geoff, any hints as to BoBHSoc's good news? I know the website states they're now £350k short, so I'm wondering whether the news might be something to do with funding?

I know that a few veterans visited the foundry (I think it was that) on the Monday after Remembrance Sunday, which might be what you're thinking of

They had film of the visit on Meridian news, the foundry is in Basingstoke, from the few shots of the bronzes they showed it does look good, great detail, should be stunning when complete

Hiya Steve, welcome back. As for the photo thing, yeah it is a pain in the butt and I have tried several solutions but nothing that worked as well as the FP system. I was considering changing software to the FP type but considering thier stability issues of late It might not be worth it. I will be on the watch for a module for this system to be developed.

Besides, photobucket.com does an excellent job and its free, though I admit it is an extra step.
