Thanks. Actually the magazines i was talking about was only one, "Submarines since 1919, Purnells history of the world wars special." "64 pages packed with colour."! I should scan in some pages an stick them up somewhere, some interesting stuff in there besides the pictures. There is a good section on mini-subs, might be an idea for a mini-mod or some single missions...
Thanks again for the welcome. |

The first time I was able to tour a B-17, I was amazed at how small that sucker was.
I am sure that the 1/4" plywood armour sides gave the crew that nice warm protected feeling. How men could go up in those machines and fight? I honour their courage and dedication to duty

No thread is a good thread without a pic or two of the Dool!
First an old photoshopped one I used as an avatar: And a more recent one brushing me teeth (why stop what you're doing to take a picture for a forum?) |

Welcome b_molloy! Hope the recent server outages don't scare you away
Since I originally posted the story with my broken elbow in this thread, thought I might as well drop an update here - as of today, I can finally reach my left shoulder with my left hand again, which was pretty much the last checkpoint I set for myself. So I'm almost over the hill with my recovery! ...on the other hand, the amount of work I fell behind on, not the least some articles I promised to write and translate (one of them for Subsim), and my own Masters thesis, have me pretty well horrified, now that I can and must finally work on them |

Allrighty, time to post some pictures, but since i still have about 700mb worth of images to upload a single one of me coming out of the sauna will have to do for now. More coming later.
Edit: Done uploading half of the pictures now, the rest will land in the same album some time tomorrow http://s228.photobucket.com/albums/e...seke/jaanikas/ Last edited by antikristuseke; 07-10-08 at 06:48 PM. |

Name: Flick
Born: Feb 4th 1949 Joined the WPL way back just after the release of Destroyer Command and SHII. Friday nights and Saturdays were dedicated to on line gaming at WPL chat room. We even had BIG BASHES were there were over 20 SHII and DC players. Those were serious multiplayer weekends. Posts held at WPL XO EGL CDO EGL and after my triple by pass surgery 3 months ago I decided to back away and devote more time in spoiling my grand daughter. |

Hiya Flick! I remember well those days. Though I never got to play as much as I would have liked I spent a lot of time in the chat room joking with you guys. That, and hanging out in the 'K.R.A.P.' and Squid's 'Trivia Time' boards.
It's good to finally 'see' you.
