We made a big rocket once .... three feet long stainless steel pipe ... point, fins, convergent-divergent nozzle ... and lit her.

There was a deafening WOOOOOOSH ROAR noise, and a trail of white smoke into a cloud ........ about this time we began to wonder if, and if so where and when, it might it might return to earth.

Two things:
1. we never saw it again
2. we never did that again.

Anyone elses description of it might be "self propelled spear" then?

Fireworks were my favourite source of black powder. Have to be careful when opening some of them fancier rocket thingies, can have some unusual effects when propelling things ;)

A big box of Bryant & May cooks matches and carefully remove the heads with a scalpel is a good propellant as well - have to creafully grind the heads in yer mum's pestel and mortar before use though
 
Whoever the moderator is on this fred should get it into the range rover forum.

Keeping them on the road COSTS a bomb.

Not even you guys can threaten this young pretender. Even with your worst.

15 year olds can do what the hell they like, where the hell they like and to whom the hell they like.

You can imagine one of the sub forums to be headed "the most expensive range rover scratched from end to end" Now THAT'd make it the biggest 4x4 forum on the planet. Another "Kicking wing mirrors off"

You could aim a cannon at him made from a closed off pipe with a banger in it with the blue paper sticking out of a little hole and a brick in it. Trouble is, from memory, although the brick goes pretty well where you want it, the tube's behaviour was totally unpredictable- and painful. I was abit younger than 15 then.

Motorway Tyre Services ? Blimey. That is a memory. Did a spell with them myself for a few nano seconds.:eek:
 
to be fifteen again, isnt it fascinating at that age playing with projectiles and firing things, kinda sums up masturbating to firworks:D :D
