We'be also branched out to include Bucks as well as we have a number of members coming from there.

and they came weekly

and they came onto your property get fetch them, rather than now, if you forget to move them 20ft to the edge of your property, they won't come and get them.

Surfshark works fine so far - I'm on 23H2, although I don't have the security update listed here, so I'll keep an eye out for it sneaking onto my PC.

That is looking good.

Get a VPN and set your location to the UK.

I've been using a VPN for 10+ years when abroad to be able to view UK only content - i.e. BBC iPlayer, and when I want to look at sites in another country as if I am in that country - some content in the USA springs to mind. However I discovered late last year, it didn't work when I wanted to be "in" South Africa to view DSTV to watch some live sport - I had already bought a 2 week subscription. DSTV knew I was in the UK and wouldn't allow a connection. I tried SurfShark and it worked out of the box, so have switched to it and dumped my previous supplier. You should be able to get 80% off from YouTube reviewers who have had their video sponsored by them. I think some browsers (Opera?) have a VPN built in - I don't know if thei work.

Local elections tomorrow. We have had no election literature so no idea who is standing for which party and for what position.

Looking good !!! Question - why is end of your nose taped off?

This is a new venue, and it is still in Hertfordshire (just). I asked @Rudi K and @thebartman if either could organise a breakfast in Buckinghamshire as they come from a long way to the meetings and we have a few other members located in Bucks. We don't have to book as it is a first come first served. It opens at 8:30, and looks to have plenty of parking, so I'd suggest meeting up just before 8:30. The address is: Ashridge House, Ashridge, Berkhamsted HP4 1NS

Not a new film - but Battle of Britain is on Amazon Prime at the moment. Watch The Battle of Britain | Prime Video (amazon.co.uk) "Silence in Polish"

No probs - I'm about an hour away, so anytime after say 10/11am would be fine by me.

I might be able to come up on Monday. The Coffee House Cambridge (132 Wulfstan Way, Cambridge CB1 8QJ) looks reasonably close by. Don't want to pay exorbitant hospital car park charges.

if it is the tailgate strut - SJS have them.

I am tempted by this

WGC for me. We had a meeting last Sunday over at North Weald. May's will hopefully be over in the Buckinghamshire direction as we have a number of people who come from there and have a long drive to Herts/Essex. There's a BBQ at the end of June which is a great day out.

@gamaphobe Hi John we have an monthly meet up in the area. I've added you to the PM list. Whereabouts in Herts are you?

@bogle - I read at the start that they had proper mobile crematoriums where they just bunged the dead (or maybe not so dead) in so as to avoid having to send them home. @Bibs - that's my view on the numbers.

That's only counting the ones that they have buried back in a graveyard. I don't think recovering soldiers, whether dead or injured is a top priority, plus the mobile crematorium doesn't leave anything to bury - and of course not much left from an exploding tank.
