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?

:) Repetition ...it's repetition..There's no such word as replicate.......unless you are American!!!!!!!

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

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 :x Yah boo shucks.

Probably too difficult to be honest, there are possible ways to do it, but i couldn't be fucked to tell you the truth.

/\ 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.

:? 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 :roll:

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?

How about a rule for our car piccies...none more than 12 months old? :wink:

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.

Jazz Button is rather kewl!
