Excellent; love those vee cutouts. We didn't have the posh all-terrain version of a cotton reel 'Tank' where I grew up.

Is that a rubber band out of one of your 3 wheelers?

My first car was a Toyota SR coupe. 1275cc of twin carbed lethargy.

Beleive it or not I got my licence at 14 years of age.But because I was to be 15 in a weeks time and the council office was shutting for Christmas they thought it was ok. I had my HGV and trailer at 17, someone needed to tow the water bowser behind the forestry fire engine and I was the man ( boy) for the job.

If you were lucky and ran one of the cotton reel tanks on well well dry floated smoothed concrete in summer using a live Englands Glory match instead of a safety match on the concrete sometime it would strike a light .

Do the Russians know that you’re publishing their latest design ?

Luckily owing to lack of any way of assessing it's size it's impossible to tell if it's a one man or a whole regiment size tank.
