Born in the prosperous '20's, grew up during the '30's depression, and then served in the '40's and maybe the '50's and 60's too. Whew! No wonder they were called the Greatest Generation!
Possibly for one of the German ships holed up in a fiord.
ZACKLEY!!
...and Bristol named their engines for Greek mythology: Perseus, Hercules, and of course, the mighty Olympus (the 593 version of which powered the sublime Concorde), and Napier named theirs after weapons (Rapier, Broad Arrow, Sabre...).

I do miss the fish and chips.... and the beer for that matter. The shops still wrap 'em in newspaper Paul?But they do have Fish n Chips
No, Jim, not for years! It's horrible expanded polystyrene boxes and naff little plastic forks now. That's progress.I do miss the fish and chips.... and the beer for that matter. The shops still wrap 'em in newspaper Paul?
The Bearcat is awesome. There’s a bunch of them still racing at Reno and crushing it.
The fish and chips comes in three packaging options in Wales. A few shops package in decorated cardboard boxes as some sort of value added trick. Most serve either in a polystyrene box (which is often wrapped in plain white paper), or just wrapped in plain white paper, or served in plain white paper rolled into a cone to carry and eat from. I think the printed newspaper option was dropped due to hygiene concerns, will certainly in NZ it was.
