This is the gooseberry bush we have. Always green, starting to yellow when it is ready. And a bit spiky. But not red.

What you're eating looks more like a currant. A redcurrant....?

Hoping for a BIG result on plums this year,

Oh Yes Rob !! It will be great !!

Congrats !!

When I was a kid, my Grand'ma used to choose best flowers on both plum and pear trees

Then she introduce carefully the flower in a bottle and hang the bottle to the tree...

The fruit grew up and mature in the bottle and then...

Guess what she did with it...

I plea Not guilty... It's atavic Mr President !!

Hello Dears,

Modelling today

Lots of bits done but nothing worth of a pic...

I prepare the belly of the RATG Hurricane, I opened the air intake.

For the one interested, SWMBO is now involved in creating this...

IMG_20200705_192317

No, it's not alcohol, it's fermented but it's good for your intestine...

Kombuchja is the name !!

Refreshing and delicious !! I tried it with cherries !! Oh My !!

I loved it !!

See you tomorrow !!

Sincerely.

It looks like it should be alcoholic. Go on, put some vodka in it.  :dog:

Hello John,

I can give it a try but no... This mushroom is really great ! and tasty enough !!

It help me for my allergies and guts disorders...

 

Look like I will have pumpkins this year !!

 

IMG_20200706_164218

I really enjoy these curly botanic thingies !!

Nature is stunning, it look like the old fashioned telephone wires...

IMG_20200706_164218

My tiny garden is under an invasion threat...

IMG_20200706_164300

I did'nt feel to be ashamed to make a garden since even rockstars did it...

Sorry @The Spadgent I can't resist this one...

A bit more to follow the thread of my friend @CedB

I told you so... 1/72 is far too tiny for my big stubby mechanic's fingers...

I add some wiring to the MG's

IMG_20200707_214035

Then I will add an electrical relay and plug these wires to the control column...

:rofl2:.... in my dreams....

Some Hurricane desks in progress...

IMG_20200707_232644

The first one will be buttoned up soon...

RATG one in fact... Followed closely by the BoB one...

Now a question for our Hurricane expert... @Troy Smith

If my memory is not too holed up....

When the step is lowered, the handle on the fuselage is open...

But is this possible to have the canopy open and the step closed up ???

I think so, since the canopy can be opened when flying...

Or in other words, is the canopy linked to the step under the fuselage and the handle ???

 

Today, no modelling since we get on the restaurant to celebrate the end of schoolyear for our kids !!

They both made it good !!

A pic of the restaurant...

WP_20190904_16_27_10_Pro

I must bring @Martian in this one... :evil_laugh: and some of you if you came up in our tiny bananian Kingdom....

More to come up tomorrow....

I'll try to avoid the Gardies when coming back home at night...

And of course any flying couscous....

Have a great modelling time Gents !!

Sincerely.

Hello Dears,

Mmmmh What the heck Airfix 🤬🤬 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IMG_20200716_214251

Squared wheels now ?? A flat side on weighted wheel is a good idea, but I suppose that I must park my Hurricane against a concrete border ???

I will use my secret weaponry... Roy !! Help me !! Resin wheels it will be !!

IMG_20200716_231120

The Rodhesian Hurri is buttoned up !!!

:evil_laugh::evil_laugh:

And we now have a race... Mustang or Hurricanes ?? 

Who know ?? Not even me...

More to come soon !!

Sincerely.

Just had a catch up through your thread, crikey there is some great Hurricanery Mr CC .  Some fantastic work, love the PR model that looks fantastic and unusual.  I still can't believe how many models you have on the go at any one time fella.

Keep up the good work

All the best

Chris

Well Gents !!

Yesterday saw just a bit of modelling, another shaky evening at CC castle...

But I managed to push forward on my Hurries...

IMG_20200720_222824

It look smooth did'nt it ?

IMG_20200720_222836

But here, we got a problem....

I must carve a bit in the belly, because the air scoop is standing much too proud...

See

IMG_20200720_222943

And as one can see, I'll have to do it on my RNDFF Hurricane too...🤬

But this is more disturbing...😩😩

IMG_20200720_225346

Sink marks too... Mrs Airfix, it was'nt worthy to play ICM game....🤬🤬

Then, I'll need a bit of putty here too...

IMG_20200720_232340

We'll see tomorrow, after my workday, and dog walking and gardening...

IRL is demanding these days....

Take care Gents and many thanks for your support !!

Sincerely.

Nice progress CC :clap: From your first pic, it looks you still have some filling to do on the trailing edge, though.

 

Ciao

Hello Mr G !!

You're right !! It's now done !

the Italeri vengeance is on too...

I corrected the emergency hatch and filled the sink marks !!

IMG_20200724_001814

The internals are almos done for this one,

Then I start working on the wing of the BoB one. (CA)

I wish a modelling week end full of fancies for you all !!

Sincerely.
