  1. Have had calls from all sorts over the years claiming to be my bank or energy/ satellite tv suppliers wanting to confirm details and whatnot and I always say the same thing, if you're from the company you claim to be you'll have those details already, and if its that important you can write to me. Its just so easy for the lowlives to get your details nowadays. Been the victim of people fraudulently using my details a few times now so its very much a case of once bitten unless I'm dealing face to face with such people.
  2. Cant believe it, they were talking to the guy during the warm up lap. Watching it live here in the UK.
  3. I liked the 3rd one, had forgotten about it until you mentioned it though, it was jut about at the limits of what my old brick of a PC could handle, I liked the if you didnt perform in time the Nazis won element. Well since you have all 3 and are in Ottawa and I cant be sure of finding mine, I'd say you're the guy to deal with.
  4. Ok, I've got a good idea of where they'll be if they havent gone the way of a charity shop, will have a look over the weekend, cant vouch for having the instruction booklets though I'm sure the key commands and whatnot can easily be found online.
  5. I'm fairly sure I have the ETO and Pacific versions at my parents house, no good to me anymore, if they're still knocking about you're free to have them. I'll be going back this weekend so can check if you want.
  6. Thought it was something along those lines. Thanks.
  7. Picked this kit up for £50 yesterday just wondering if anyone has built it and what the decals are like, any problems with them. And if I remember right, there's problems with the Aires exhausts?
  8. Been thinking about making the move myself, I can just about scrape in on a professional visa because of my job, provided I have a solid job offer first. Do have some family in BC so I'd probably gravitate towards that part of the world.
  9. No worries, I'm aware its a scam, just wondering if anyone else got such a message. Besides, after my Nigerian General friend made me super rich last year I dont need the Benin money......
  10. Waiting for me in my message box here Good Day. I am Mr Jorge Calderon, Auditing and Account Manager in BSIC BANK Cotonou, Benin Republic. I discovered the sum of fifteen million, five hundred thousand united state dollars ($15.5 Million USD) belonging to a deceased customer of this bank the fund has been lying in a suspense account without anybody coming to put claim over the money since the account owner late, Mr Salla Khat from Lebanese (a contractor with the government of Benin) his wife and their two kids (daughters) were involved in the December 28th 2006 Benin car crash along the ever
  11. Looking forward to the 1/48 Lightning.
  12. Haven't read the whole thread but just noticed the mention of snow tyres above, was one the phone with my insurance people because my policy is up in the New Year and the mention of snow tyres came up, if you fit them some insurance companies see them as a modification and wont pay out if you haven't declared them and need to claim so just a heads up. We had about half a foot here last night but luckily I have 2 days off so didn't need to battle it into work for a change.
  13. Paypal froze the money in a holding account when I sold a Canon lens on ebay last year, if memory serves t was held for 180 days or until the buyer posted positive feedback on my ebay account.
  14. Very impressive, hoping the Meteor is just as good, waiting on that one.
  15. Just had my banks anti-fraud people on the phone, a series of payments for £50 x 4 were made after the obligatory test tries of £1 to microsoft online services, hadn't bought anything from Hannants since the first week of their website(will also continue to shop there). Could be a coincidence, this was a debit card. So doesn't look to be over just yet folks.
  16. Yeah I was thinking I'd try it on some scrap first. Just thought I'd give it a go as flat coats are my nemesis.
  17. Anyone used this? if so is it any good? Just ordered a can to put the order up over the free postage mark.
  18. That info is great, just what I wanted. Thanks.
  19. Thats the beauty of the night shift, gaps in the rail traffic where I can attempt to find interesting things on the interweb that arent blocked by the company internet filters, actually amazed I can get on here as most forums are blocked. Got my last train about to pass the box in about 15 minutes, the engineers are on the other track doing maintainence so the night is mine until things get moving again around 2:30am.
  20. Hey guys currently stuck in work where the internet is severly restricted to what I can do and view so its stopping me doing a lot of this research myself. What I'm looking for is info on if the US Navy A-1s used Napalm during the war in Vietnam, specifically the BLU27 finned or unfinned flavours. Any help appreciated.
  21. Thanks for the tip bob, that part in question was my first suspect for the culprit so I unscrewed it from the body of the airbrush and hooked it up to the compressor and pressed down on it and sure enough, it let out air, so I knew atleast that part was working, so came to the conclusion that it was where the air went once it went into the body and noticed a 1mm wide hole so, me being me I stuck a drill bit down it and out came a glob of dried up matt varnish that had plugged the hole. So its all working now. Thanks for the help though.
  22. OK, so I fixed it, I left it alone for an hour or so because I was starting to get angry with it and I could see the whole thing being thrown at the wall or in the bin. So when I went back I sat and thought what could it be, so out of all other options, I put a 1mm drill it on my pin vice and stuck it down the chamber the air passes down and when I withdrew it out came a glob of dried humbrol matt varnish, how it got there, no idea, but atleast I now have a working airbrush. Moral of the story, just leave it alone and come back to it later.
  23. So, bring down all my model making gear to the kitchen work area I use as my workbench, prime the parts that need some paint on them, mix up some paint to shoot, fire up the compressor, press the trigger and nothing. No air coming into the brush, checked the air hose for a blockage, nothing, air escaping out of the open end at full pressure, dismantle and clean the air brush, put back together, nothing. I'm thinking its the actual bit the hose screws onto and the needle the trigger presses down onto, but no idea on how to check. So this is a half rant, half plea for help from anyone that might
