Always a nervous time, drilling holes in the hull, but you've made a good job of that.

Yes it is a quiet time today. What is it that makes em go out shopping after all that buying ?!!

Bliss? ..... Wife has been shopping on her new tablet for days now Neil. Jury is still out on whether it's better than her actually going shopping.

I thought that the majority of members were PC (personal computer)

Although some from time to time refer to using their phones

I too have been sorting out deck supports today for my Cygnus.
Where did you go for the Gussets Neil?
Don't think SWIMBO would part with hers

I think Wodney deserves a Porridge sandwich for all the help he has given you today,and a bone for Ally! (sorry folks...an in joke!) by the way Neil,I hope you arent going to grease it with that margerine in the photo!
Seriously though,it just goes to prove that there are ways round things of difficulty,and that mates nearby is a good asset as well.

Stop leaving the workshop Neil and you will be ok.
Glad to hear you never actually ran them over - still must have been a shock to your system.

Dave

Neil · « **Reply #197 on:** January 04, 2013, 10:54:55 pm »

cheers Dave......both days I'd like to forget, really.
Mind you, hopefully soon I'll be working towards getting the decks onto the models..........and not much fitting out...........might have them ready for Etherow Lifeboat day.
neil.

Neil · « **Reply #198 on:** January 04, 2013, 11:31:04 pm »

cheers Dave.....but got to go to Lancaster to the model shop for glue and plywood tomorrow.................might be safe going that way, so long as I don't stop anywhere else, lol

Hi Neil I was just wondering why you never got a job with the war department building tanks, you certainly believe in building them strong, lovely work. I am happy despite your many scrapes that you are O/K & had no serious injuries. Regards, Mick B.
