Talking about choppers, was there anything special about the chopper that summited Everest? Surely the air is too thin up there for the blades to "bite"? Was it stripped down?

Well done Cois, you are getting there. @Copperhead, well said Sir! Cois, all the best mate.

That's my Boy. Tough nut. The positivity in the way you put things is to be admired

Keep positive Cois. (seems you have that under wraps) Have you thought about motivational speaking?

Where do I find it?

Sold!

You are welcome to use my road bike - Ciocc, Ultegra but it is a 58....bit very big I think.

Absolute correctness. Very well called Sir! I agree, we have very little chance.

Will do prior to sale. It has been evaluated and authenticated previously but would need to do this again. It is real, no problem with that. I just need to prove it I guess. Thanks for the guidance.

Nope, no papers. Has numbers at 6 under the acrylic but my eyes are also old these days. I will put it under the microscope. It says swiss - T<25 Whatever this might mean?

Oh yes. Without doubt. Had it valued the other day. Frightening to say the least!

Where would I find the number/serial?

Certainly not acrylic! Not to me anyway. Had it for over 30 years and serviced regularly. Perfect time. Retire next week so open to offers.

My watch to sell when I retire.

Pic 2 - Windward hull in deep. Leewood must be deeper and main freed. Did you go over. Nice to see sail speed on the water.

Guilty!

Jeez, my old jol! Used to go there moons ago and get slammed properly for R1. 2 Rogue quarts and share a Cing Adam Still Tickles Little Eve with a mate. Good times........

Been there, done that Room at the Top in PE. Teach her to order what she did on a student allowance and then go and sit at another table on someones lap.

Ja, and Sir Mick is having heart surgery as we speak. (End of an era?)

No, civie, before the army. Jumped with the Batties after hours.

You guys make this an interesting thread. Great reading, thanks. (The first time I ever went in an aircraft I had to jump out of it)

I remember going there as a kid. My dad played for province there.

And so, what is the news about everything....anybody have an update?

Sorry to hear mate. Sympathy to all.

What a pic! Must have been monkey ball cold there. Just love that shot!!!
