I think Beanos are about a quid now, not too sure.They were about 40-50p when I was younger, and supposedly 5p earlier than that.

A pink and Land-Rover!I have a vague recollection of building a pink Land-Rover as an Airfix kit, which begs the question; was the British army driving round in pink Land-Rovers at some point?

I guess they did, but if it was for camouflage purposes, why not just paint them beige?I do know there was a pilot in WW2 who painted his plane a similar shade of pink for the same reason and somehow it worked.

I can see the use of such a camouflage.Nowadays, you just see these sort of things doing hen nights.

Pink LandysThey used to call em Pink Panthers, for some reason the pink breaks up the outline better than beige

Well I never.Thought I'd dreamt building a pink Aitfix Land-Rover. Maybe it was a Tamiya kit? They were better made but more expensive.

You learn something new every day :-) although I always thought that the second world war was in black and white ;-)It'd be a sight to see if they had combined pink camoulflauge with dazzle camoulflauge.

One of my sister's friends actually asked if people saw in black and white "in the olden days".By this logic, the Ancient Egyptians must have seen things in hieroglyph.

Haha, if you grew up in the late 60's, 70's it did seem somewhat like you were seeing in black and white!Very drab time recession hit Britain in the 70's
