I must remember not to upset your mule when we next meet.

Mule, even I know it is a 'orse.

 

Now do I show Mrs M the above post?

 

Are you brave enough to let me show her it?

 

Will you feel guilty when she doesn't cook my diner or wash my smalls as punishment for what you have written?

It was addressed to you in your Eastwood persona. I've never forgotten going to see a Fistful of Dollars, and wondering what the hell is all this when Clint told the gunslingers that they had upset his mule. We soon found out.

Ah But Mr Eastwood hasn't come across Mrs M when cross. :scared:

Bit of a change today. Best name on a Britannia.

Ooh! That's a good one.

 

Another vote here for Coeur-de-Lion (70007), great sounding romantic name. BR obviously had a penchant in naming locos after those who could loot and pillage with the best of them ...

Britannia, which I cabbed stone-cold outside Redhill Control where I worked. She was there for safe keeping Christmas 1968. 

Spotted at Haywards Heath around the same time.

You do like your Britannias. Lots of votes, and 12 different nominations. There was a concerted effort by our upside down friends, but one of them hedged his bet, and gave two locos half a vote each. That means that Britannia herself with four votes, edges out Anzac with three and a half.

 

Are there any really bad Brit names? I don't think so. We will therefore move on to best Deltic name.

Much prefer the military names to the racehorses (particularly disliking Crapello).  I'll vote for "The Black Watch".
