It's a fairly common net speak acronym for guys to refer to their wives or girlfriends with.

I don't think they have anymore, I'm sure one was passing through. They were after an engine for the other. Now that would be nice :)
They haven't got a VC-10 either come to think of it !

Played by Peggy Thorpe Bates - who (along with her husband Brian Oulton) lived just nine doors away - it's a small world isn't it?!

Incidentally Brian played the vicar in The Iron Maiden - which featured a Handley Page Victor as an airliner!

Together they also played Neils parents in The Young Ones....

God - I'm full of useless crap.... :unsure:

I think i'll just call my wife Zoe, she was christened with the name Zoe and she's fairly comfortable with it so i think i'll carry on calling her Zoe

Nice photo, is it at Bruntingthorpe ?

I spy the Mazda Bongo :-) Return of a proper camper van :-) No need for tools, just bacon baps, tea and maybe the odd beer in the fridge. Roll on the new season to get mine out and about....
