Re: Garage
I could spend hours looking about in our garage! Just a thought Vanny me old mucka, me old china plate me old dish cloth like....would a Garage Chat area work? So, each thread would in effect be dedicated to a vehicle, a sort of vehicle based blog and chat. e.g Phil might start one based on his turbo project, Doc for his bus, you for Jazz etc? Or would this be replication of some sorts?

Re: Garage
Whilst I hate Americanisms, I think your statement is undoable as replicate stems from Latin....so nerrrr!

Re: Garage
There WAS no such word till sometime in the last 10 years when it was adopted in from Websters
I have an Oxford dictionary which is about 12 or so years old and it isn't in that!!!
I'll bet if you go back in the American Websters about 20 years it won't be in that either.
I've been listening to people being interviewed on tv for a long time and you never heard the word till the last few years.
English has a lot of words that mean similar things but they actually mean something slightly different, that's what makes our language so rich. But this one is just a copy (no pun) of
reproduce, with no other nuance.
Modern made up word from America Yah boo shucks.

Re: Garage
/\ Fair do's although I didn't mean specifically within the garage, just another section of the forum like LT Chat or for sale/wanted.

Re: Garage
Is there a quick link back to the contents page from the garage that I'm not seeing??
You can get back to a section but not the board index....possibly allegedly

Re: Garage
from any page within the garage, if you click;
You get back to the 'Garage Home' page
And if you use the 'Board Index' link in the navigation bar, then you get back to the main forum.
Is that what you are after?

Re: Garage
Aw maaan, that'd mean uploading new photos every twelve months, but in a way that's why I suggested garage chat, cos then if we are on a project, then we can load up the latest piccies, but we could do this just as well in LTC.
