Hey Cobber, If anyone here is a fan of "Allo, Allo" you'll know this bit, but for those who don't... The Germans have to go undercover as British Airmen but don't speak English - so they think that all British speak the same way... Pipe in mouth, big moustache, lean backwards, "Faaa - fa- fa - faaa" Righto Chaps! I get it everytime I drive in the gates at home in the Jag - apparently I need a tweed cap... At least they still whipped out a Barby and a snag! ;D Cheers Chris |

G'day Chris, Did you notice the "Retrovisor" on the roof of the Rover.... apparently they did the job well if the 'van windows were set low enough. I think somebody on our forum has one Cobber. |
