Do you ever have one of ‘those’ days?
Came home from work, and got straight onto the job of washing my ‘smalls’…hung them out to dry, and then watched as the line unclipped itself from the window frame and fell down one floor into the muddy wet mess that we call a garden, taking my clean undies with it….
’gosh and bother it’ I said….
Having rescued and rewashed everything, it was down to the serious business of submarine modelling. I spent an entertaining half an hour making up the two retractable crew safety deck rails, soldering them together, drilling the fixing holes and then epoxying them into position. ‘ A job well done’ I thought to myself…then realised that I’d fitted them on the port side and not the starboard side where they should be.
‘gosh and bother it’ I said….
Having sorted that little problem out, I unpacked a parcel that was waiting for me…..it was the Fleet radio I’d bought off ebay to control U-33. Got everything out of the box, put it together, and as I was plugging the servos into the receiver, I noticed the orange label stuck on the front panel. 35mhz it said….
‘gosh and bother it’ doesn’t begin to cover what I said….
And now I’ve just burnt my finger stubbing out a cigarette….I’m going to bed.
