Weird french diesel

Paint it how you want they surrendered as a nation

 

[Cowmansam]

I’m sure there was many brave men and women who did fight to the last but they still surrendered over all

My 95 year old grandfather still calls them cowards his father died in the first war his 2 older brothers in the second

Thousands and thousands of ''frogs'' in the resistance helped many many britsh airmen to return to uk or to remain safe after crash landing in occupied France. They knew if they got caught they would be killed. Yep, that sounds like giving up to me.

So Allo Allo was factually accurate?

I’m wondering if my history is incorrect.
When did France surrender in the 14/18 (great!) war please?

They didn’t they did in the second it’s you who mentioned the first I just assumed you didn’t know your history and ignored it

So how do you get on picking things up with it ? I would think its challenging but not impossible, the four wheel steer and telescopic boom will be of advantage.

Intermittent electrical issue I've never got to the bottom of. Actually had to reverse all the way back from my neighbours place last winter.

This thread doesn't make much sense......ah...I see. Say no more.

Well the fuel gauge has settled down now I chucked some better fuel in ,

Supermarket shite .

Appears the thread has gone on a different tangent however

 

[thesilentone]

I think the French (who are always a little contrary), are using -as+ and +as -

@Cowmansam , I am fascinated to know what you find funny about very young men (and boys) being killed in trench warfare ?

How do you go from someone liking a joke to "so you find people dying funny"?
I think your high horse might set the world record for height.

Maybe, but I’d rather be there/here, than in the gutter

I wouldn't worry, its gone on to the topic of horses now

 

[Cowmansam]

Well if get to horse power from horses we may just get full Circle

Once you get off said horse you might find out it was actually dead in the corner of a shed and the gutter is surprisingly near.
