You're Top Poster: #3   | Two steps forward, one step back. That sounds reasonable to me.

You're Top Poster: #2 | G'day guys, Kyt asked me over here so blame him! Hi, my name is Andy and it's been two hours since my last post elsewhere! I live in Western Australia. Have been fascinated by WWII since my Dad and I built a model of the Bismarck way back in 83 when I was 7. Am interested in all aspects of the war but main interest is the aviation side of things, particularly the RAAF's contribution but also everything else. Probably the weakest when it comes to the Russian front but it'll get there. Am 30, almost 31, married to a great, devilishly evil and fun girl and the proud "father" of a toy poodle who runs the house. Currently own two old Bedfords and have started up an online magazine about the old truck scene in Australian and New Zealand. Finally, can't believe Spidge is up to 26 posts already!

You're Top Poster: #1 | Oh! When I said pop over it was like when people meet on holiday and say that "we should stay in touch"  I wasn't expecting you to take me up on the invite Nice to see you've moved over from the dark side - but I must warn everyone else that having Andy as a friend is an expensive business - he keeps recommending books that are hard to resist  |

You're Top Poster: #2 | I was thinking about it but there's no chance, Kitty. I even saw a double post by Spidge yesterday! I think he's determined to stay in the lead and fair enough too.

You're Top Poster: #2 | I think so. It was your Brazilian AF post. Lot of good that fence did. Saw one of the little sods hopping around in suburbia a couple of nights ago.
