    James tended to go the adventure route, it would be referred to as extreme travel these days.

    Interestingly, Thomas Cook was born in Melbourne.
    James and Thomas weren't closely related. "James Cook has no known direct descendants—all his recorded children either pre-deceased him or died without issue."

    that is usually enough time to sort your grammar and spelling, if you find the need.

    moderators are supposed to report a post before they modify it...

    and because i am special i can see the full history and versions of all posts in case there is an issue of some note.

    Well done Mick , I was referring to Thomas Cook .

    He was a bit of a genius and way ahead of his time

    We'll if the Wombles of Solihull build my Defender next Wed, the beer should flow on the 2nd Friday of Sept. But that's a big if.
    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.
    apologies to Socrates

    Clancy MY15 110 Defender

    Clancy's gone to Queensland Rovering, and we don't know where he are

    Well, that was an interesting 7 pages of entertainment.

    p.s. by way of making a contribution to this Thread, I like most of Bob's posts and look for more to come.
