Nah, the good stuff comes from Herefordshire!You can get it in plastic "kegs" in some stores....
.... but the"Good stuff" is purloined from some of the Pubs on the Moors, usually decanted from their own demi -johns and sold in half pints,some of them you can actually see through... if you take out the bits of bark first of course!!
Bit of heresy for you all….some of the best cider I’ve had comes from Normandy in France! Mind you, Lilley’s, a couple of miles from me as the crow flies, is no slouch either….
Now then,I like you Pete...
That's what you get for going into French France.. can't trust them buggers.... They're almost as bad as those Cornish gits !!

.. Yep, that's the first FOURTEEN stages completed
Next the Aircrew,I jumped ahead a bit here,(They can take a bit of time!!), he's quite nicely done.. problem is,these planes had a crew of THREE, so why do you only get one??

All good nonetheless
A nice build so far
Andy
...they also eat SNAILS ..!!
Cheers Tim..
Console yourself with the thought that if they did give you three, they'd be identical triplets.these planes had a crew of THREE, so why do you only get one??
Thanks for that Pete.
.... like the two I used in my Defiant.
I’ve eaten snails….but not in France.and I’m not French!
.... I used to know weird kids like that when I was at primary school..
Mine were cooked……not playground foraging……they were part of a so called taster menu at a good restaurant in the Cotswolds where we went for our twenty fifth anniversary a few years ago. Her indoors wouldn’t touch them, but I thought “what the hell”, you won’t know unless you try them ……not sure I’d have them again though,…..... I used to know weird kids like that when I was at primary school..
... they weren't French either!!
Now I thought that was just me………great spot John!
Did you know that a lot of the snails eaten in France are (at least were, before Brexit) imported from Wales? Raised on a farm near Cowbridge. I've eaten snails in Angouleme, as well as frogs' legs. Wouldn't bother with either again though.
Didn’t know that. I thought they tasted like over salted bacon rinds to be honest Pete, not something I’d try again either.
Hi Jim, thanks for that,and yes,my build blogs do seem to wander off on strange tangents every now and then.... can't understand why!!
Cheers John,tis a striking resemblance isn't it.
..... "Great minds" an all that eh Tim.
Didn't know that Pete, doesn't surprise me though, weird lot those Welsh..... just look at Bob!
"Over salted bacon rinds" eh?...hmmm, they've suddenly become more appealing!
