Winnie's practicing well for the pints of ale eh?

Sadly, he can't grow enough of a beard to join CAMRA yet.

In any event...what's this! Have I finished a model?

Gad, sir.

There was some crazing on the interior of the canopy on this one, much as with my Brengun Typhoon. I think I'm going to go back to dipping them in Future, that seemed to protect them some.

Bloody lovely that. Looks great with the rest of the gang. Certainly knocking my completion rate for six this year.

Florence seems to share a commonality with Winnie inasmuch that she too sleeps with the peculiar 'bottom in the air' attitude.

I too shall refrain from politics except to say that there was a day within the last fortnight where I had to takemyself off to bed with the worst migrane I've ever experienced in my 29 years on this earth...and I'm not English nor do I follow kick-ball.

mmmmmm...grilled cylindrical meats.

How resolutely am I not celebrating? I'm making a grilled cheese for dinner.

The adventure continues with something completely different here.

Nice finish on your 190, Edward; congratulations on the completion. I like the pics of Winston as well - how I laughed at his rendition of the 'bum-prominent' sleeping style, so favoured by children of a certain age.

Andrew.

Apparently it's the most lethal sleeping position known to man, but unfortunately, it's the only way he's slept at all (aside from in my arms, listening to Stan Rogers songs) since he was born. If the Victorians had known, as we in a more enlightened age know, not to let their children sleep so, they would have drowned the world in their progeny.

Gah! Thank heavens I didn't know this, or maybe I did and elected to disregard it in favour of having some (any!) sleep... hard to say. Thanks also for the introduction to Stan Rogers; it's too late to trial that method on either of my two boys in the same manner, sadly.

Very nice work indeed Edward. I'll look forward to your next build... B)

If family photographs are to be believed I routinely slept in strange positions and/or places and look how I turned out. Actually you can probably take that as a warning.

Cheers,

Stew

I'd be thrilled to have a son like you, Stew! But also alarmed, because you're fifty, and that would defy the laws of nature as I presently understand them.

Realised I'd posted this in the wrong thread... oops. Ahem:

I wouldn't fret about sleeping positions - we made ours cry (and lose sleep) by trying to force a 'not dangerous' sleeping position before we realised this was probably a statistical correlation and not causal; I don't think nature encourages dangerous behaviour.
