Fascinating Alastair, thanks for the link. And interesting to hear Barnes Wallis voice too.  :thumbsup:

But the guy doing the commentary has the most IRRITATING voice I've heard in years!

The voice isn't so bad, it's the bloody awful delivery that grates!

If you want an irritating Australian voice, I give you Frank Walker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMC6gcWu2LM  :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I have no idea how capable your works van is but you may be able to have an AUX source play music to it so you can listen to what you want. I use an MP3 player in my car and change the music on it from time to time if I want.

Mrs z used to work with a bloke called Frank Walker - he didn't speak like that but everyone who met him did an impression as soon as they copped his name.
Poor sod.

At last I've got somewhere with the Swallow, it's had its first primer coat, and it's on its 3-4th PSR session.

It's slowly getting there............
