    Has Bowkett got his knickers in a twist again Greenway? Perhaps you'd better run to straighten them quick before his blood pressure rises.

    Hee hee!

    Hi Tom

    I was offered a Spitfire several years ago at a bootsale, Stock had been stripped and used without any finish on it, It was loppy and dented to hell, The action had no blueing, The seller firmly wanted £125 for it, I politely declined

    Not a twisted knicker in sight, just a bit of humour. Something is no longer funny if it has to be explained

    In the state you describe it doesnt deserve to be politely turned down. It had probably been "sorted" as well

    It's nice knowing that Bowkett is obviously worried by people such as DM80 and myself that he has to employ his little troll to make jealous snide remarks claiming them to be funny.

    Hey, you started it I hadn't even commented on this post when you mentioned my name, remember? Now you wish to stay on topic?
    "How sad" that you have a dig at somebody and another message board then try to claim it was a joke. Now you play the victim?
    I rest my case, it's a crap design done by a bitter man who has to post under various different identities claiming to have spoken to Bowkett and to be relaying Bowkett's messages so that he doesn't get held to task on mistakes or misinformation.
