    I was looking something up on T`internet and came across this

    Popular Science - Google Books

    seems to be a local advert directory ,for just about EVERYTHING ,as you will see i wanted to know how to make a "phaorohs serpant" but if you scroll to the top there is a squillion adverts for all you need in 1949

    mainly weapons and car stuff - neither wonder the Yanks are gullible

    The VERY last advert is VERY Un PC - how things have changed Ha Ha

    have to confess being a bit of a sad anorak for old magazines. I've got thousands of em. Popular science and practical householder are my favourites though

    "make your own fireworks are always a laugh" just googling for some of the ingredients would set the echelon alarm bells ringing and get you a visit in the middle of the night!

    Thought for the day:
    Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything but bring a smile to your face when thrown down the stairs

    Converting an MFV Fifie trawler type thing.
