Mr Scalyback, I totally admire your idyllic life style, A farmhouse in France near the Swiss border, a british bike to play on, a cracking model railway to play with something I never had as a child, somewhere in Kent where you have another bike to play on, and stuff you had in the states that has just arrived so I assume you lived in the states as well. I have only deduced all this from your posts, but where does work fit in you look a bit young to be an old codger like me. What I can't deduce is what's the secret?

Good question.



Yes, not married, I never knew how long I was going to be around...



I guess it was a long time go now, I had got into debt, even with a good paid job. I remember sitting outside tesco's in the company van. There was a gas burner ring that ran off propane to heat the old fashioned soldering irons and I was just enjoying a can of value beans and sausages that had cost about 19p back then. I had 50p left and was tempted to go and get a value can of peaches for dessert, but sadly, I realised that I still had no money coming in for three days, and that I would need to eat tomorrow, so the fruit was out.



Anyway, I changed my life around, worked bloody hard and also had some two real spots of good luck. One was 'field effect radar' which produces a large mostly magnetic field. It is not directional, but anything entering the field (and it does not have to be metal, jury is still out on that one,) and it depletes the field causing an event. Those neat funny looking USA planes reflect radar upwards, but, they still deplete the field.........


I work in an advisory mode..........

?

So I learnt something from my earlier problems. Be nice to people, share stuff with them even if it costs a little outlay to do so, Help your friends unconditionally if they fall on hard times, and never, ever forgot that longing for a can of value tinned fruit.



So, yes it is ideallic (spelling checker didn't get that one!) I suppose, but it is the result of and incredible drive force that came from being hungry with no money.



I had a requirement to move around different countries to set stuff up, ect. and now I find myself in France. And in about 2 hours, I am going to take Kevin to an 'auto-moto' show, which will hopefully be worth the while, so expect a report here later today or tomorrow.

I had an idea you were some kind of James Bond! I wasn't far out by the look of things. Just more like "Q".

Unexpectedly, The guys here have started calling me 'MacGuyver'. I guess they had the show over here. I just rigged a matching cct so I can play my iphone through my 1939 Murphy A72 radio. YAY! Needs a bastard long Ariel too.


Had fun with 'Astrolite G' ( a clear, liquid explosive) It a bit unstable and you can spray it on the path, and when visitors come,they get little explosions under their feet as they walk. Brings out the child in me. LOL.
