Managed to edit my post #4 to show pic which failed earlier.

Anyone else found the forum VERY slow to load tonight?

All other sites/forums I visit were loading as fast as normal, but this one was so slow I gave up, even logging out then back in made no difference - seems OK again now.

Yes and I logged off and back on again!

Tried that earlier and it made no difference, but fine again now. Until I discovered other site were OK, I wondered for a moment if my ISP had turned the gas down a bit out of spite as I'm leaving them for another who're offering full fibre to premises much earlier than they can. Paranoid...moi?

wonder if thats named after an old VW Polo, or this even older Ferrari

Iirc, Nick Mason (of Pink Floyd) used to refer to his Scimitar as The Bread Van, although it's quite likely he owned the Ferrari version, too.
He's moved on since, I believe.

@JOEPRO ,vw lt size.
when I was a kid ,I always called the Thames 400 vans “ band van” maybe an adult had mentioned bands used to go to gigs in them,not that I’d have realised.
