Why do I get the impression you two are trying to tell me you're past it........Hell, we're all getting old, just got to do a better job of fooling ourselves!! I'm Kool!:rolling::smiling6:......that last half mile and broke me a sweat.

My Rememberer

My forgetter's getting better But my rememberer is broke To you that may seem funny But, to me, that is no joke. For when I'm 'here' I'm wondering If I really should be 'there' And, when I try to think it through, I haven't got a prayer! Often times I walk into a room, Say "what am I here for?" I wrack my brain, but all in vain A zero, is my score.

At times I put something away Where it is safe, but, Gee! The person it is safest from Is, generally, me! When shopping I may see someone, Say "Hi" and have a chat, Then, when the person walks away I ask myself, "who was that?" Yes, my forgetter's getting better While my rememberer is broke, And it's driving me plumb crazy And that isn't any joke.

Yes Chris (old) some bad things had to give up driving :anguished:
Good thing sold car got money. No insurance no petrol to buy. No seervicing. Buses in Jersey free for OAP :thumb2:
2 daughters one son in the Island & 3 grandsons started driving could this be our luxury taxi service. :smiling2:

Do not have to work for a living so all free time except preparing a few meals a week washing windows & floors.

At 82yrs dentists are not required often as not many teeth left. Still have most of my marbles & both legs work well.
Can only remember one girl friend, the first, Jennifer. She dumped me :tongue-out:

Finally I am happy .

Thanks Tim

Yes Tim love renovation work house, boats & now "the biggest" challenge & lets face it is renovation of a Dart Herald.

Hopefully enjoyment may come after priming. Think I will look out for a thick primer.

You seem to have this down to a simple three step system Laurie. Filler.....filler......and more filler!!! You might not need any lead in the nose to get her to set on her "all threes". :thumb2: Rick H.

Laurie, unfortunately I was otherwise engaged when you started this so just had a full catch up. As Tim said they could have saved a lot of material , or build some more models with that flash.

Can't fault you determination to beat this, with that in mind the Committee have gone to the unheard of awarding the Dogs Award at this very early stage.

Well Deserved......I understand there is also a Free tube of Putty that goes to the recipient........so pay up JR Rick H.:thumb2:

Thank you John that is very nice of you.

Such an honour I am flabbergasted. So flabbergasted.

Determination John. I live on that a number one virtue. Churchill my greatest Englishman stated courage is the greatest virtue as it gurantees all the others

He was wrong, apologies Winnie, it is Determination that will guarantee all the other virtues that you have. With out it your are lost
