To be honest, recently I seem to find that nearly every post is model related.
Not like the variety of posts that appeared just a year or so back.

Indeed strange. Though it could just be one of those "flat" days where no one has anything in particular to say on here.

As Windsor Davies, The sergeant in "It Ain't Half Hot Mum" used to say,

"Oh dear, what a pity, never mind"

Thinking through a problem with another angle can be part of what this site can be about.

I hope even the 'modelling questions only' cohort understand that problem.

Me, I just need to start modelling again and, ignore this site!

'Ere, lend us that 'at my lovely boy.

Wasn't it "Oh well, too bad, never mind." I can see his facial expression now :lol:

Anyway, just to say I loved that show. Great casting. Of all the old British comedies that have been aired in North America, that one seems to have been missed. Thank goodness for You Tube.

Stevies right - all said in a monotone with a very fierce expression.

Anyone got any rivets they want counting!

Along the same sort of lines.
Does anyone know where "It's not often you're right, but you're wrong again." comes from?

There was something on line the other week saying that 'It ain't half hot Mum' was so unPC that is will never been shown again on BBC.

The sooner they kick this PC brigade into touch, the better.
