So you were the first to break then Thumps =)) =)) =))

This little whipper snapper has been taking my pedant tendencies to hell and back .... but I've resisted ...Oh I how I've wanted to dive in.... but I've cut him a break.....and you snapped first \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

I'm so proud of myself .... I think I'm cured .... (ish) :ymblushing: :ymblushing:

Sorry MS2 its an 'in' joke - you'll learn - we are prone to have a very warped sense of humour here :p :D

While we're on the subject Spitters ;)

MS2 - As you seem to have been looking through some older threads, you no doubt will start to see what Spitfire is refering too. You might want to look at posts before Christmas (Before he won his award ^:)^ ) ;)

I've just picked this up from facebook:
RIAT 2010 Arrivals & Timings: Reds Only 8 Ship Departed Fairford For Farnborough
2 hours ago via Facebook for iPhone

Why would this be the case? and does that mean we don't see the full 9 for the weekend? :-S X_X
Edit to add this beauty from today en route to Farnborough stolen from facebook :D :

I heard Hydraulics through somebody through the scanner, but not sure what was wrong with 10. 2 of them came in seperately, away from the other 8 on first arrival reporting problems, went up the first time as 9 and then departed the second time as 8 if I remember correctly.
