raven4x4x Group: Members Posts: 1535 Joined: Jan. 2002 Posted: Dec. 12 2008, 21:05 Car number 3 is certainly Viper. I don't know about the rest. -------------- Thank-you for helping us help you help us all. Back to top

Sweetpea Group: Members Posts: 1476 Joined: April 2007 Posted: Dec. 13 2008, 02:50 Dirk's Pics: C. I think that may be a nautical flag, but I don't know what it means. It might be a subtle reference to "QE2", though? F. "Jewel In the Crown" I. "Gimme Back"? ("...hook, line, and sinker..." - farfetched, I know) 7. Is that a Ford "Taurus"? -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time? (On account of the earth's orbit around the Sun and all that). So it seems he never had to make the choice after all. I bet he's kicking himself now." - clotty Back to top

nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4770 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: Dec. 13 2008, 04:54 8 surely isn't "Blue Saloon".... Back to top

nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4770 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: Dec. 13 2008, 05:30 C is a nautical flag meaning "Papa" (for the letter "P") - presumably the Mike Oldfield piece is "Our Father". Back to top

Dirk Star Group: Members Posts: 1331 Joined: Sep. 2007 Posted: Dec. 13 2008, 09:04 Ok guys some correct answers here and some not.I think I may have to give some clues for some of these later if nobody gets them.. C..is of course a nautical flag but it has nothing to do with QE 2 or Our Father.The name of the flag is the same as the title of Mike`s piece.Think of some of Mike`s more "seafaring ditties" and you might get it.. @Sweetpea: F is a publicity shot from the tv series The Jewel In The Crown so you`re bang on with that one...The cars are difficult I know,but only one of those automibles is a Ford(number one)And none of them are a Taurus,heh heh..Although a certain Taurus does appear elsewhere here??? @Nightspore: B is Molly you`re correct,it being a picture of Molly Sugden the actress who played Mrs Slocombe in Are You Being Served.And I`m afraid I could`nt resist it but car number 8 by definition is a Blue Saloon so you`re also right with that one.

nightspore Group: Members Posts: 4770 Joined: Mar. 2008 Posted: Dec. 13 2008, 09:16 Yes, I've just checked another flag site, and it's definitely Blue Peter. So that's another solved. I wonder why the first flag site didn't mention the flag's name. It's a good idea, incidentally, Dirk - don't give away any more answers just yet, in case others haven't noticed the thread yet!

Dirk Star Group: Members Posts: 1331 Joined: Sep. 2007 Posted: Dec. 13 2008, 09:23 Good work Nightspore Blue Peter is correct.I believe the flag is used when a vessel is ready to set sail..And yeah I`ll leave it for a while yet before I offer up more clues/answers.   Back to top

Dirk Star Group: Members Posts: 1331 Joined: Sep. 2007 Posted: Dec. 13 2008, 09:36 No!   Is there a car called a Quicksilver? I tell you what I would`nt be suprised.I was amazed when I was compiling this though just how many cars share their names with Mike Oldfield tracks.Quicksilver is maybe one I missed,and Sentinal was just one I left out..   Back to top
