    Justifiable just killed a Dove

    Yes I threw it to the floor.

    Jumped up & threw my whole weight on to this Dove & killed it out right.

    It had failed to make it's way into flight.

    Yes my Amodel DH.104 Dove- de Havilland was ground to dust.

    Why you say-----not got all day have you.

    Like the Ancient Mariner I have cast the Albatross from my shoulders. I am free.

    So SeaKing here I come you little darling.

            Yes it was a de Havilland Type John. Named Geoffrey. RIP. Rare.

            Strange Pauline exalts me often saying Oh God. Rather nice I thought.

              It's even more rare that you did it having a persistance of a rock.:smiling2:

                Unusual circumstances Richard.

                Blind in one eye. 50% vision the other. Model making using 3.5 magnification.
                Also a feeling of what am I doing does not help.

                Then in 2 weeks after removal of both cataracts you look at how you had fared.
                It was not good. It was time to bury that bit of the past & start with renewed vision.

                And wow I had just not realized how bad it was. Now how good it is.

                  Laurie,
                  I know how you feel, you have struggled through and through and reached the point of no return - been there myself.
                  Mike.

                        Now now Richard. Not allowed new persecution specs for another 3weeks.

                        But I can tell you that life has begun from day 1. I cannot describe how good it is

                            So why have you been deleted?????
                            I for one am disgusted by this action, I have never found you (Subject 5496) to be anything but a gentleman and have conducted yourself in a first class manner.
                            Or are we now being subjected to the political correctness and woke attitude of being offended if we say fart.
                            Good grief! what next? heaven forbid we say the word colour (color to our colonial friends).
                            So Laurie murdered his model and went into graphic detail, who was offended, certainly not me! Perhaps the deleter/protester should take a long hard look at what the 'children' are playing on their Xbox/play station and with mommy and dad's permission and encouragement to what is being said on this forum - after all without the members there would be no forum....
                            Get him reinstated now.
                            Mike.

                              I don't know the full details, but it wasn't this post caused offence Mike. My understanding is some horrible PM's had been sent, and the admin made the undoubtedly difficult choice to remove Laurie. There is a thread somewhere discussing it. I always found him pleasant too, but apparently that wasn't everyone's experience. A sad affair all round.
