  1. My heart is racing, a Hurricane just flew over Kidderminster at low level and banked towards the house, brief but I still feel like a ten year old!

      Does the same for me too. I'm off to Duxford for flying legends next month. Deep joy.

  2. Back home and happy after the disastrous start to the day! Having a tyre blowout on the bike, called my insurance and was recovered to Leicester where Fastrack motorcycles fitted a new tyre sharpish! Stroll on!

      It was a close call on that end but my bum certainly unclench until I was sitting on the verge smoking a fag! I'll post a pic of the tyre tomorrow!

      Now at Fasttrack Motorcycles in Leicester waiting for a new back tyre to be fitted! Certainly beats walking back to Kidderminster! ☺

      I was rubbing and rescribing today and one of my fingers locked for a short time. I know what you're going through.

  5. I hope this is the bit I'm looking for! If so then as I cannot bash plastic then I am with wife and youngest stepdaughter building a 1000 piece jigsaw of an airshow full of spits, lancs, mozzies and other WWII aircraft. Nice family time!

      Similar here. Mig has a nice base coat on and Tirpitz and PE are winking seductively at me. However, going to watch some dinosaurs in a bit and have a whole day modelling tomorrow.

  11. Amazing how much I can indulge my hobby since switching from ciggies to roll-ups. I could have had the largest fleet in the world if I'd never started in the first place!
