Hi
I emailed Rick and he couldn't at that stage see a problem, it persisted for me until I shut down and was then gone when I rebooted this morning.
Strangely the fault didn't show when I tried Firefox instead of Chrome, I didn't try the IE whatever it is called nowadays

I never noticed it but it must have been something with the hosting company as I wasn't messing with anything, honest! Smile

Morning all,
A few days ago we called in at Halfpenny Green airfield nr Wolverhampton for a mooch around, mainly to have a brew and re-acquaint myself with the old buildings that still survive. I wasn't expecting to find much if any classic car activity, but as well as a restoration shop packed with V8 MGBs, we also stumbled across a S1 XJ6 and an unrestored Jensen-Healey. Our time there, including a visit to the antiques centre on site, is in today's video upload.
