Asterix?

The youngest has finally decided to try and ride her bike:

She was pretty pleased with herself :-)

Amen!!

Make sure you add a photo of your polished knob 😆

Turned this:

Into this:

Simples ;-) Hadn’t thought of that

you can buy sets of paint for specific builds.

Where from? I’ve only found individual paints so far..

Thanks Harry 🕷
I used to do models years ago but those were the basic Airfix 1:72’s (apart from a 1:24 Spitfire).
I guess spraying is the best way to finish them but can you get by without a spray gun? Don’t think I could justify the added cost too..
I’d like to do a 1:48 Tomcat :-)

Been thinking of having a go at doing a model as will have time to spend on it.

Is there a basic tool kit someone could recommend? Don’t want to spend loads..
And which manufacturers do the best kits?

How many of us have chosen the baby Yoda avatar

baby Groot for me :-)

I’ve had a kiss off Jet the gladiator

I held the ‘jumping over people’ and ‘jumping over people backwards’ records at the local roller disco (13 people side by side forwards, 10 people side by side backwards) on proper wheels-at-the corners skates.

You can have it done a month early so I’d get it in if you can..

I made a start on my picket fence, replacing the 70’s concrete blocks:

Thanks all.

Had this response from Ebay:
Hi there! Thanks for reaching out. We’re in the process of removing items that appear to be attempting to profit from the current health crisis. Visit http://bit.ly/2PSQhw5 for more information on actions we’re taking. ~Brianna

Looks like they’re doing something about it..

Bit early for a beer for me, especially as I’m at work operating machinery ;-)

What sir requires is a wreath hanger. Straighten out the bend, drill a couple of holes and screw onto the dart board..

Driving past Eastnor Castle one day my good lady asked if it was where the king & queen of Ledbury used to live.

Sat on the porch one summer evening, I spotted a bat in my peripheral. “Ooh, a bat” said I, “No it’s not” said she…
“Yes it is” I responded..
“Can’t be” was her reply..
“Why not?” I enquired..
“Bats only come from Transylvania” was her answer… 🧛🏼‍♂️

Fencing and patio’ing and time to sort out the rest of the garden & shed..there’s plenty to keep me occupied.

Clocks change soon :-)

The app is on Google Play store but not downloadable yet.
I guess the TV/PS4 etc apps will be available once it goes live. Hopefully..

I don’t, or ever will, have Sky so £35 for a year seems like a bargain to me.

It’s not a Sky thing, It’s Disney’s own channel with all Disney stuff, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar…

Was going to order it last night but didn’t get chance then noticed the £15 TCB this morning.
Placed the order and cashback now tracked :-)

Well, disappointment set in last night.
None of the other kits are complete and a few broken pieces :-(
I think I’ll just whack it on eBay as a job lot.

One elderly lady estate agent showing us around an old house liked opening things to show us.
The external cupboard that housed the gas/elec meter etc was introduced to us as “The glory hole” 😜

One Mammoth done:

Also have Zoidzilla, Giant ZRK, Gorilla and lots of smaller, wind-up, ones.

I’ve got a Zoidzilla I think..

Whenever a gun thread is started am I the only one to find them distasteful and if I’m honest a little strange ?

You don’t have to read them. Maybe just shake your head at the screen or give a little ‘tut’ then move on?

My father-in-law has been through a similar thing recently, well it’s still ongoing.
His boss was a massive cock and, following the f-in-l’s diagnosis for Parkinsons, did as much as he could to get rid of him coming to a head by threatening gross misconduct. He eventually resigned with 3 months pay.
He is currently in a process with his house insurance’s legal aid to look at how he was treated and they are looking into constructive dismissal and think he has a very good case.
Do you have evidence of his behaviour?
Might be worth a chat with your insurance to see if they can offer any help.
His solicitor seems to be very clued up on things.

Are you talking about sleepers

Yes, new oak sleepers (2.4m x 200mm x 100mm)
Might have got the table saw bit wrong but the b-in-l says he has the kit in the workshop to cut them, no problem.

Thanks for the suggestions chaps. Think I’ll get my bro in law to give me a hand with his table saw.
I’m in malvern eyepic

Hmm, might have to have a word with my joiner brother-in-law then. He’s got some industrial kit

Message me your desires of how and what you want in them and I’ll make it happen.

Will be in a sealed plastic bag to keep moist and fresh or even wet lol.

Pants

Not a birthday present but my great auntie gave me her late husband’s Omega DeVille a few years ago.
Took it in for a service and asked if they could get some info on age etc.
Turns out it was made in the year I was born. It’s 46 :-)
It’s not a watch I would choose if I was buying but it’s a lovely watch and comes out on ‘suit days’ and family events
It’s an heirloom I guess and it’s nice to talk about where it came from when people comment on it.

Wouldn’t want an ST, I’m a bit over 18.
i30 is nearly £5k more than the Polo.

She is already complaining about fuel economy on it though.

My 320 does 27.3mpg 🙄

Spotify – 36
Apple – 10
Google – 2
Deezer – 1

I don’t know but I’m now going to refer to my bike as a ‘mount’ instead of a ‘steed’ 😁
