      Hopefully you are adding a new wing to display all your airliners.

  2. Woke up in hospital. So this is what appendicitis is all about.

      You seem to be having quite an eventful life of late. Time to tone it down a notch - let's start with giving up hospital visits in the near future shall we.

  3. nothing like the depressive yet joyful feeling of binning a model your never going to finish

      Dang - did this just two weeks ago. A box of ten questionable builds that were taking up shelf space, and beyond refurb. Culled them ( after savings useful parts ) and tossed. It was an awkward, but strangely liberating feeling.

      That is one of the last things I remember saying too before the men in white coats knocked at my door.

      I had been wondering, of course I had. That would not have been my guess though.

  7. 40,000 words into my first novel. And you wonder why I don't make enough models!

      Now I am very jealous. The main item on my bucket list is to write a novel. Best selling would be most welcome, but in reality, I'd settle for published.

      Travel related?

      We might forgive you - but it depends on what you should have been writing.

      Different is good. Despite building airliners for years and years now, I find myself thinking about the Renault Dauphine I built as a kid, and thinking, hmmmm

  11. Too worn down for modelling or much of anything of late.

    1. MikeW

      MikeW

      Gosh, if you are worn down now, what are you going to do when you have kids?

      I love decorating. Let's see, a display cabinet here, and we can fit two in over there. A waist high stash cabinet will allow wall space for a map, and oh yeah, maybe some curtains.

      I endured this last year, but I can provide alibis for my dogs this time round.

  18. today's top tip brought to you by Stupidity Models. When finished cleaning your glass display cabinets do not attempt to put a model through the closed glass door!

    1. MikeW

      MikeW

      I haven't done that, but have walked into glass doors twice of late. Mopping up blood turns out to be easier than fixing a broken u/c at least.

      Hope you get relief soon Rick, bad backs are just not a whole lot of fun.
