[Hello to all.
I have recently retired after 44 years of HGV driving, so need something to fill up my days, (and probably nights too) whenever I can escape from the list of 'urgent' things to do supplied and constantly added to by my 'carer'.
Currently, my main pastimes revolve around rusty old cars. These are usually referred to as 'classics' by people trying to sell them. I have a '55 Triumph TR2 currently under restoration, a '55 series one Landrover, and a BMW motorbike and sidecar.
As for my model boat interest, I have recently completed an Artesania Latina 'Hellen', which came up on ebay. Enjoyed building it and joined the local model boat club. (Telford). Sail it every week. I have attended a couple of shows and was so impressed with Mountfleets Boston Typhoon, that I bought the kit at Haydock Park. Now I know you may be thinking that it's a very big jump from the Hellen to the Typhoon, and I agree....so I'm sure you will assist me when I ask daft sounding questions. I have read through any build logs several times and may write one myself from a newbie's perspective.
Thanks for reading this
