Welcome Torch nice to have a new face on the site you obviously have been browsing the site for some time as you have summed it up very eloquently, the knowledge that some of the guys have on here is indeed extensive.
However I am not one of them, I am, in fact, the vast amount that you spoke of.
Although I claim it is down to big bones in truth its just that I'm a greedy git.
Enjoy the site Torch, just don't take the piss out of the Stringbag

I always considered the Lanc ugly but attractive in that very rakish way.

I agree it is ugly, but it does not have to look pretty for what it was designed to do.
