Cheers mate. I'll see how it goes, I'll ditch one of them if I continue to have problems.

I use Firefox all the time, however there's a couple of important websites that won't work properly with it, so for those I use Microsoft Edge, purely because it came free and pre-installed.

Yeah, I'm steadily working that out. Do you have any issues with YouTube? The only issue seems to be I can't see replies to comments.

That's a blessing in disguise.

You probably saved me from a full on decent into madness...

Only the full decent, the first part is being here!

No, that all works fine for me.

Speaking of Youtube, do you know that there's a Firefox extension that puts the Youtube dislike numbers back? The number's estimated, but people in the know say it's pretty accurate.

Another Bad Idea is the Davy Crockett nuke launcher mounted on a Jeep. One drop short and your day is ruined.

To paraphrase somewhat:

You are my Sunshine!
My only Sunshine!
You make the sky bright
When clouds are gray!

     So in British service it would have been christened "The Eric & Ernie" ?

I had to make sure that it was still March reading about that. It looks very suitable for an April 1st joke posting but it isn't.

There was also the small company that tried using retired Cobra helicopters for lifting as with less fuselage than a regular Huey it could lift more payload. They converted one but it didn't catch on. They removed the stub wings, the turret and all other strictly military equipment to further lighten the aircraft. Sounds good on paper but just didn't pan out.

A small crane that nobody wanted as it lacked versatility. Trying to compete with the 214B with its over 3,000kg max external load and big cabin was a bad idea.

It would take up a lot of shelf space!
