I think Vince lies in wait until everyone has got all the obvious stuff out of the system - that probably only leaves one possible guess, LOL.  Or maybe time to have a quick google to check what's what!!!!

             I-Spy C.C.C.--------- Cranky Computer Connections!!!

             Been cut off again Huh

              As to previous comments I don't pounce, just plug away sometimes lucky and sometimes not, sometimes a bit of research such as the last I-Spy, sometimes beaten by others just as good. But it's all in good fun and it's what this part of POE is all about.

                OK then let's go with one from the Greenboxbuster

I love reading the posts you guys put up. Also learn a lot of new words. Just wondering, Dave, is a packup a lunch? It was all I could think of. Really enjoy seeing the differences in languages and expressions. 

As for I Spy, how about steam, sneakers, spokes, stand (as in concession stand) or steering?

Mick there is a website called Yorkshire Patent Steam Wagon Co. who have asked for any information or pics on surviving steam wagons and I wondered if you would be interested in communicating with them.  They do acknowledge the photographers with their pics!  The addy is:

Cathy. Thanks for that. The web site has a email link but my Mac Safari says "cannot open"  The site owner is on NTL, will try typing it in.

Looks like I have sent it OK.  This is 117 built 1905.
