Interesting photo. This bloke is really tooled up......tankers pistol holster, etc? Operations behind enemy lines with special fart filter to avoid detection by smell........hose directed up leg of shorts explains the rather pained smile? OK.....what is the real story, please?!
AUSTRALIAN!!!!!! The poor bloke is spinning in his New Zealand grave! He was a Kiwi (like me, funnily enough). I see he was repatriated with amoebic dysentry, which may explain the vent tube up his Bombay Bloomers and the pannier-mounted reservoir! Seriously, it would be great to find out what the real story was.
I'm not sure whether your posts refer to the previous photo of a BSA at the entrance to Armoury Road, but I thought that was quite an evocative shot. It'd be nice to see a permanent use found for it somewhere.
Hans I often find that the previous picture hangs on after Henk has put a fresh one. It sometimes clears if you click that C shape symbol to refresh the page. Ron
It may be because each image is named the same - forum.jpg - some browsers will use a cached (locally stored) copy of the image rather than getting a new one from the server to save time as they don't realise it's actually changed. A forced browser refresh will fix this which is either Ctrl-refresh or Shift-refresh depending on your browser.
Seeing there are dug ins surrounded by sandbags , a few sheets of corri and sand under foot, I would hazard a guess that it is one of the top end temporary airstrips.

Errr.....he is a Kiwi! See previous posts. Top end of NZ is a bit greener than this!
