The Red Baron!

[Mick in Dubbo]

Perhaps that's what I should call my GTI. I don't normally assign names to things (my wife does) but while hunting yesterday ($11 found) I was looking at the GTI and thinking, yeah it's got 3 coils and it's green. The Red Baron's usual plane had 3 wings and was mostly green.Oh yeah. The Pom's finally admitted a few years ago, that he was shot down by Aussie ground fire and not a Canadian pilot as first claimed. Sorry John.

Only a would wear a scarf, as shown in the authentic, historic pic below. Aussies don't even have scarfs in their homeland.......totally useless in their climate. Only someone from a cold climate would even consider such a feat, that is to shoot down the Red Baron.

It was definitely a who shot down that feller, and I'm sticking with my story.

J-E,
Your comment on Aussies and scarfs is quite scurrilous! All you have to do is go to a football match (or watch one on TV) and you'll soon see that Aussies know how to make good use of scarfs.

Love the pic John. It's a beauty!

P.S. We just had Aussie day on Thursday. Gotta gloat just a little.

Yeah Furious. But that's only for that girls game they play down south. Great name, not so great game.
