I dare say whoever wins the Centurion ride would be happy to swap. I know I would :)

And if the third prize winner isn't willing to swap, then FSN has found someone to talk to about Centurions ;)

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Safe enough if you stay on the expressways and don't try the bridge - wont take the weight. (They have to scrap off the current surface layer before resurfacing)

There are expressways in Runcorn? I thought they'd only just introduced muddy ruts.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

And that was for the trams (horse drawn).
