    Bye Big Boy!

    Come Sunday the big 6 foot tank will be away.

     Not even lasted a year. Angel Stick out tongue

     However I'll be glad to see the back of it, whilst I'm sure it is a fantastic tank the room left will be a blessing.  Tbh, I never utilised it to it's maximum and only scratched the surface to what the tank could've actually become.

    Have lost a helluva lot of money on it, but I expected that anyway.

    Tbh, I can't see me returning to anything other than the corner tank now for Marines.  I was thinking of Malawis, however not sure even about that now as I don't want a tank in the dining room again due to size restrictions.

    I'm sure you're over the loss, Frank; the gap will be filled with something else - penguins/laptops/family - you decide 2funny

    *makes a mental note to remember that the next time Jacq makes that comment.*

     

    Yep, it's good to have tried and at least I know what is involved in a big set-up like that.

    Mike - Pretty sure the guy it is going to has been keeping Marines for 7 years so he should look after it well.

    Re: Bye Big Boy!

    Well was picked up on Sunday.

    What a performance though, the bloke came down to with some mates but was risky business.

     Thought there was nearly a couple of times it was going. Big Smile

    He's told me that if he ever has to move it, it'll be a hammer to the tank................LOL.
