  1. Its because they can't get the wood you know...
  2. The "arrows of indecision" were only reversed on one side. Something to do with the Royal College Of Arms I recall.
  3. For creating the vapour trails that contain the mind control chemicals....
  4. "Human. Look. The food is right here. Why are you taking pictures and not preparing food for me?"
  5. It's as if he's trying to communicate with us. It sounds almost like English but it makes no sense 🤣
  6. Cor. Goes lovely with a mug of CoffTea. 2 sugars, ta.
  7. The bread (or roll/bap/barm cake/etc) should be "warmed" in the bacon grease. Bacon should be thick and properly cooked, nicely browned and just going crispy, can be cut into bits to ease consumption. Butter is optional (see first comment). HP is preferred sauce. Ketchup and english mustard is a close second. Used to get the king of bacon rolls in a cafe near Hackney Downs station in the 90's. Made me the man I am today.... (fat, lol). Right, thats made me hungry. Off to the farm shop for some bacon later.

    Soooo.......

    Parents got married on Mums birthday. He daren't forget!
  9. You may find it easier to bend if you anneal it. Heat to a dull red and allow to cool. You can quench in water, but I prefer to let it cool naturally.
  10. Regarding the cracking, may I recommend superglue and baking powder? Will hold it together and fill it at the same time.
  11. Not an easy decision to make Bertie, but the right one. We await your return patiently.
  12. We had a fitter at work who carried 3 tools. His process was: 1 - Can I fix it with my screwdriver? 2 - Can I fix it with my pliers? 3 - Can I fix it with my hammer? 4 - If no to all above, we need a new one. Put the kettle on lad.
  13. As you now have most of the components available, have you tried a balance test to see if you have enough nose weight?
  14. Nice work on the terrible twosome. I've built a couple of 'obby 'oss kits in the past, and found mistakes on the decals (such as USS OHN F KENNEDY on a Prowler). Any issues with these?
  15. whoa whoa whoa.. Its neither wooden nor nautical, Bertie has escaped! I am interested to see how many variations of "Happy Bass" he can come up with 😁
  16. From what I've heard so far, one of the weight bins isn't mentioned in the instructions, and most are adding even more nose weight.... might be worth bearing in mind.
  17. Nicely finished Bertie. Its been a bit of a slog, but you finished it beautifully. Next! 😁
  18. The rolled Hammocks had to pass through a hoop to ensure they were rolled tight enough. If not, I imagine they were dumped out on deck to be done again. I know that in extreme weather, they were kept below deck.
  19. I refer the Honourable Gentleman to the following : “I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by.” ― Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt 😁 Nice work as always. I have the 1/100 Heller Victory in the stash. I think I'll be doing something smaller first though....
  20. Rare footage has emerged of Martian on his way home...
  21. Another successful mission by The Cat Placement Society, secretly providing kitties since someone looked at a sabre tooth tiger and thought "aw, cute".
