It's still going if you contribute rather than ask the question why not answer it (as in the question asked in the title)

Most of my time is spent emitting a field that inexplicably breaks Technology.
So I work in technology.
I have a (currently, temporarily) 2.0 g-Ltd.

Is that temporarily because your invisible aurora is going to break it or for some other undisclosed reason ?

Re: What Jobs do MR2 Owners Do and Where? Which Mr2 Do You Have?
Both!!!
As I mentioned on the “project” thread this is the only MR2 I’ve owned that my leaky warp-core didn’t manage to break. Can’t be having that, so going to sling a V6 in the back.
I’m sure it’ll give me no trouble at all once I’ve fundamentally rearranged it’s innards on my driveway / in someone’s shed.

I was one of the Red Arrows (#30) with my Red Rev 3 turbo from 2006-2010 (see pics).
Then posted to a different display team until 2015.
Backwith the Arrows from 2015 until 2023 with the G-Ltd, and continuing with the Mk3. I wonder how many of the original RA crew members are still on active duty?

Tony I think you’re pushing the limits a bit by describing the g-ltd as “red”

Depends on which bit of it you're looking at...
I'm not sure what the thread title of that was, but I've had a look back through my post history and found the following:jimi wrote: ↑08/02/23 23:39That would be interesting I've been trying to locate the Red Arrows role call from 2007, but no luck so farTonyleFrog wrote: ↑08/02/23 11:08

Clicking on each one, I get

The requested topic does not exist.
I think there has been a cull of some sort as the only posts of mine for the whole of 2007 that are currently viewable are here: Forum: MR2OC Event pictures and videos
For everything else the Forum: tag for the post is blank and trying to open it returns the same message above.
