to match his speedos

I don't wear Speedos.

 

I was also hoping to build a Pibber Patrol Boat for the Salty Dog GB (Tamiya 1/35th) but the overpriced auction site has them listed (with shipping) at just under 100€.  Too bad.  

I'll find something else.  Tugboat or a trawler or a flying boat of some sort.

Holy crap that's spendy!  I think I saw one at the LHS for a fraction of that.

OT a bit: the other night I saw Gary Mullen, the guy who won Stars In Their Eyes as Freddie Mercury years ago. If you’re a Queen fan and get chance to see him, do. A remarkable impersonation and a great night.

Here's a picture of me with REM. That's me in the corner.

I'm in the picture too. That's me in the spotlight.

Did you hear about the man who accidentally handed his wife super glue instead of her lipstick?

 

You sure that was an accident ?

Bloody hell, I must have two wives!!!!!!! Where's that one been hiding? Other than in the jacuzzi obviously.

My Ex certainly thinks we’re still married the way she tries to nag me still !

@Thom216

I hate it when people compare Freddie Mercury to God

I mean He's good but He's no Freddie Mercury.
 

A young Freddie Mercury walks into a music class

Music Teacher: "What instrument do you play?"

Freddie: "The crowd."

Music Teacher: "What do you mean?"

Freddie: "AAAAAAAYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOO"

Music Class:"AAAAAAAYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOO"

I visited the Jobcentre today to see what job opportunities there were.  They advised me to apply to the local Search and Rescue Team.  Apparently they're always looking for someone.

[Hockeyboy76]

Where does Phil Collins record his songs

The stu-stu-studio

 

My wife asked me to name Meatloaf’s top 3 songs… I named “Paradise by the Dashboard Light” and “I’d do anything for love”… but then couldn’t come up with another one.

But hey, two out of three ain’t bad.

Well some of the ones I voted for are going strong, and I particularly want not my comfort zone, small scale and above the Karmin line to get through, none of my proposals are above the line  but at least none of the proposals that I am ambivalent or completely disinterested in are there either

 

I would suggest to merge Sopwith with Airco/DH, though it probably the same suspects who vote for both anyway.

 

And Neutralitity is certainly not popular in this day and age 

[trickyrich]

Dad: "What's Beethoven's favourite fruit?"

Me: "I don't know."

Dad: "Banana na, banana naaaa!"

 

When I was young I wanted to play the guitar really badly.

After years of determination, I can play the guitar really badly.

 

The urge to sing “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” is always just a whim away, a whim away, a whim away…

 

I met a nice girl at a concert last night and asked her to call me when she made it home.

She must be homeless.

 

Singing in the shower is all fun and games until you get soap in your mouth.

Then it becomes a soap opera.

 

Nurse: Your wrist is broken.
Dad: Will I ever be able to play the piano?
Nurse: Yes.
Dad: Great! I couldn’t play before.

[trickyrich]

.....and with that the first signs of the culling to come have started already!

 

Just a quick look at the numbers and some vote changing has already started, we will see if this trend has continued with tonights update!

Shouldn't "sopwith and successors" merge with "tornado to fury"? Those might well be the same folks also.

Maybe some of these could be STGB?  Sopwith STGB...DH STGB...something along those lines?

I have a cunning plan my Lord.
 

As it appears that most of my favoured GBs won’t make the cut this year 😢 I realised that I had one of these in the stash: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/hobbycraft-hc1717-hawker-sea-fury-desert-fighter--101507

 

So, if fate plays the cards right, I could do this and enter my build into the Desert GB (I’ll possibly do it is an Iraqi AF acft), into the Go Large or Go Home GB (it’s 1/32) and for my own piece of mind, I can pretend I’m in the Sopwith and Successors GB AND the Hawker Tornado to Sea Fury GB, both of which appear to be lacking popular support 😢.
 

The only one this one doesn’t fit is the Meteorology GB and I would have had a full house.  Also means I might finish it within the year 😂 Now how many GBs can one model enter? 😗😇

 

 

[Andwil]

Still undecided how I will vote.  Some of the builds I would vote for are not going to need my vote, others wont get up at the current rate even with my vote.

 

May just use one or two votes as necessary 

 

How do you interrogate a cheese toastie?

 

You grill it.

 

Knock, knock

 

who’s there?

 

Dunup

 

Dunup who?

 

eew, I hope you haven’t.

Early morning numbers check carried out - satis.

 

Entropy appears to be holding onto eighth place. That's not great but we are still three places above disaster.

Thanks for sharing it's very open of you.

Lots of people go commando like you, like @desert falcons wife last night.

Used to be that the first thing I did when I put the kettle on in the morning was the Wordle. Now it’s look in on the bunfight.

 

What have I become?
