Nice profiles...

Now, you tell me what the serial letter under the other wing of that Belgian Hurri is!
 
Given up? H. Serials from H-20 to H-43. Which is very odd, because they only received 20 aircraft. You know what the French say about the Belgians!
 
Oh, dear.

No, it's the mayonnaise AND the cheese I object to.

A bit of fine mature Cheddar, with salted butter, some nice water biscuits and a glass of vintage port would go down beautifully. Never mind all this French stuff - it ought to be on a list of internationally forbidden WMDs. (Weapons of Mass Disgust!)

Maroilles. Livarot. And so on. If you are not of French DNA - it's different from ours - you can't get the stuff near enough to your face to put it in your mouth before passing out from the odour.

Talking of cheese and bikkies... I've got a bit in the fridge...

Wallace and Gromit? Who? Never heard of them.

I don't know about that. A good Brie or Camembert with some good, fresh French Bread, nice butter, and of course the whole point of the exercise some good wine, is my idea of a good lunch on the patio of my Mum's Devon cottage by the sea. One can have all the benefits of French food w/o the ... having said that, IIRC, the birds over there aren't bad.:kiss:

Now as for English, a good ploughman's lunch with all the extra's and a good real ale isn't that bad either.:ernae:

If you read the post you might get some hints where to look for in literature or what info to combine

in the decal sheet: ABT decals 24 for Belgian WW II fighters there is one Hurricane H22 and it has nr 22 on the fuselage....http://www.modelingmadness.com/scotts/decals/abt24.htm
 
Oh dear, trust the Dutch to bring us back onto the subject. No romance, no finesse, that lot. :wave: :focus: :help: :faint:Good info, though - thanks, Ton!


James, I expect I've had more experience of French girls than some, and I much prefer a delicious English rose. :jump: Purely a question of taste!

Real ale? Where? I've ordered 70 tins of Boddington's to celebrate the departure of my Master's students. Should be fun. Better than teaching, anyway!

Ignoring the girl part, since my last experience was in 1964 or so, I am sure you can't get real ale outside of Blighty; at least what we call real ale. However I am partial to a can or 2 of Boddingtons. I noticed on my last trip to the UK that there are a heck of a lot of specialists beers now being sold in Sainsburys, etc.; even from India, Thailand and so on! I remember the old days when one would take an old quart screw top bottle to the pub and get it filled up. Not sure you can do that now though.
