The appreciation is highly appreciated.

Thanks to the members who make all the good posts, I only provide a frame for it all.

Yes, keeping the place peaceful to the eyes & mind (no flashy ads \ animations) and easy to navigate were the goals from the very start.

Thanks.

No, not yet Joolstacho. Too busy getting the house finished. At the moment I'm plumbing in a new heating boiler then I'm going to be putting up a carport in front of my shed, then after the plasterer has done with the bathroom I'm going to be tiling the walls before fitting a new bath etc. Then, if I'm allowed I'll start work on the half finished Ben Buckle Falcon that's in the attic. Also, there's a certain BSA Golden Flash that demands to be ridden, dammit!

Good looking plane. I have a small pulse jet kicking around waiting to be built into a C/L model at some point. I'm thinking maybe when I'm too old for bikes.

Re the Falcon. It's an old timer design. I've got hold of a lovely OS 10cc glowplug four-stroke with exposed push-rods to put in the plane.

Nice. I'm still in the office at the moment - looking at a K Falcon diesel sitting here on my desk.
