Welcome from Ontario, Canada!
Who puts on the most mileage--you or your grandson? I'm betting you! :haha:
Any hints yet that maybe a T34 or Sherman might be a good adversary?

Nowert wrong wi our English mi duck. You need to get thi sen a good English dictionary that’s aw.
Where is the "R" in Peugeot? Our Olympic annoncer has no "R's" and I've heard him in auto racing...

First Second Fird Forf Fifh...

Don't get me wrong I love the Brits they gave us life... They just give us abuse of how we treat the Queens English, and I'd submit some of them wreck it far more than our Southern members.

Top Gear UK is by far my favorite show and yes I like cheese on everything. If this gets me banned, I totally understand, if so I bid you all a fare farewell. "The English language, Two continents separated by a common language".

One of my favorite shows until they released Ed China was "Wheeler Dealers". Mike Brewer was in my mind the worst enemy to the "Queens" English than any other on the tele.
You probably do not know who I mean but Arthur Daley was one of the finest murderers of the English language, There is an irony to that George Cole who played Arfur was a fine actor , If you ever saw the Liz Taylor Cleopatra George played the Mute to Rex Harrisons Julius Caeser but on the radio his excellent rather plummy diction stood out amongst other broadcasters.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

jmlangley1. See we have the ability to go off topic. And we also embrace a little trans Atlantic rivalry. I am the odd one out and learning Gaelic, I can confuse you all by writing in a Derbyshire dialect. Oh and as regards jellied eals, horrible slippery things from the south of England. You need to taste a good wild haggis. :D

I've upgraded to metal tracks, idler wheels and metal drive wheels. I need to replace the chassis, because it has cracks. Now it's time to upgrade. I found this forum. Looking forward to any info or suggestions. Thanks

Haggis are easy to catch. You just need a mirror.
