    Interesting post, Tim.

    Sub Committee UK member, Steve Webb built a lovely model of a chariot.

    Unfortunately, as you can see in the pictures, the diving suits, which he made up from old rubber gloves, have perished.

          I'll keep an eye out

          I'll keep an eye out for some photos, but Andy is the expert - all I know about them is what was in the article

          I do still owe you an article on the Louisiana civil war mystery sub!

              I'll try and get some

              I'll try and get some info.

              Unfortunately the talented builder, Steve Webb, is very ill indeed with lung cancer.

              I only learned of this today, so my thoughts are with him and his family.
