Not at the moment - thats a project for next month - apparently I've got to spend some time with the family.  I mean I give them a weekend in Newent and they want the world :D :D :D

Hopefully next month will see the a@se end of a trailer, not sure which one to get though. :-/

Gave them to the lad next door, every time he saw them he would drool so I thought why not, is only about 700euros, wish I had that money now though.

Amazing what you can do with a couple of empty beer cans and a corn flakes box!

I dread to think what I spent on Airfix and Revell kits when I was a sprog. My favourite was a 1/32 model of a P47 Thunderbolt. I had plans to bung an electric motor in it, but then I spotted Females. :o
