    It is until the gearbox dumps 4 gallons of SAE30 in the fighting compartment. Still you never know when knowing how to change a 1/4 tonne gearbox will come in handy...

    Makes a change from desk work anyway.

    I wanted to get a Panzer or halftrack to drive to school with, but Panzer's take up two and a half gallons of fuel PER MILE!!!

    I decided to ask if the football couch would let me land a Stuka on the football field...

    The thing with a tank is there is not much you can do with it. May I recomend a combat engineer tractor? http://www.witham-sv.com/infopage.php?ID=484&Overide=1 £9500 for all that is an absolute bargain.

    I tell you if I had a spare barn I'd get one tomorrow.

    Oh look, a ferret just like mine. Tatty like mine too.http://www.milweb.net/classifieds/classpics/27366.jpg

    Why were you on a RMT picket, if you don't mind me asking? Worked in transport before you got into Law?

    My brother is a train driver, and he borrowed it. He wasn't actually on strike himself (drivers are in ASLEF not the RMT) but obviously no driving was going to happen that day since the rest of the railway was on strike. The drivers generally take in cards or a football and amuse themselves while the spartists in the RMT get cold on the picket line. So anyway, he took the ferret in for the other drivers to have a play driving around in the carpark, and after a bit the RMT lads came over and asked for armoured support in the class war, and the rest is history.

    Why not have a tank and a tractor, all in one?
