Do you know who the Iron Cross belonged to?
You should come over here to Germany, they have one of the last fully functional Panther tanks. I believe there is on in England as well. By the way the best tank museum is in England.
The Bovingten Tank Museum has everything from the Tiger, Panther and King tiger.
Another good musuem is the German Panzer Museum in Munster Germany which also has a Tiger, Panther and King Tiger.
No that I do not know.
Oh and what cheered me up.
Today I will be seeing Queen and Paul Rodgers

Sweet Cota, I went to the APG last summer, it was cool seeing all the tanks and AFVs, especially a Panzer IV in great shape.

I am getting a car at the end of the year and will drive it home after my cousins wedding, but must pay it off for more than 2 years. Worth it!

Hi 109. When you come to Europe, another good tank museum is the French one at Samuar. BTW, careful for directions to the R.A.C. Tank Museum; it's in Bovington, Dorset, England. However, you'd be surprised how many people turn up in the village of Bovingdon, Hertfordshire, England, looking for the museum! The latter, BTW, is where the airfield, now a prison, is located, where the movies, 'War Lover', '633 Squadron', 'Mosquito Squadron' and 'Hannover Street' were filmed.

Spent my third day out of the apartment due to the cooler weather. Really pushed myself the last few days and paying for it tonight, but it's all good. Yesterday went to the 100th annivsery at Union Station and saw some classic trains and today took a trip up the Maryland countryside and stopped and spent some time at Monocasy Battlefield.
Not a bad weekend at all for some one who's had to spend most of the summer inside.

Nice one! Is that rallying as in the Monte Carlo, San Remo etc., or a different thing in Oz?
found a new model/hobby shop in my home town of stockton that i didnt know was there, they have a full stock of humbrol and revell paints,wash pigments and some kits from manufacturers i've never seen before

different, there is an event where they make a tight winding course in a paddock and you have to get around it the fastest, I think the proper rallying you are referring to you need a special racing licence in order to participate.

I understand now, and yes, you need an FIA licence for international events, or your own country's Competition Licence for 'home' events. I used to rally an Escort years ago, then it got too expensive, so changed to trying to get a Land Rover where no vehicle fears to tread! Off-roading, in other words!
Yes Rochie, ain't it just great when you find a shop like that? Trouble is, the wife soon finds there's too much month left at the end of the money! Still, I no longer have the latter problem, all independant these days!
