Hey remember - if it wasn't for us Brit's you'd all be speaking French...
Or Spanish… most of North America belonged to Spain until the the early 1800’s :tease: Then Mexico inherited a good portion of it :giggles:
Ah you see I could live with that - the Spanish are Dudes. But the French... mon dieu! :grin: (I jest obviously, never met a Frenchmen I didn't get on with).

I can’t say that I’ve met any Frenchmen face to face. We served alongside them in Bosnia and crossed paths on occasion, but both groups avoided one another.

Now Spaniards I know a bit more from my travels… and considering I have a huge family that is still in Mexico… :whistle: :giggles:

I've worked with a few French people over the years - nice guys, much like the Poles I've worked with.

Awesome! I've not been to Mexico but I like the vibe. I've been to Spain a few times over the years and loved it. A very chill place, especially if you go to the non-touristy bits (we travelled to Valencia from London by Train). Loved the food!

That's a nice pit! And I think I've asked this already somewhere: how does Marmite perform as a weathering wash?
Cheers

Lol! I use it for the oil staining under the fuselage!

Thanks Martin!
