    Had a bit of a fright

    Went out for a meal last night so no modelling done. However, before I went to bed I thought I would just check progress on the Zvezda BT-7 build. Finding a bit that needed a bit of extra glue, I shook the near empty bottle of Mr Cement to get some on the brush and did what was needed.


    Accepting that the bottle was nearly empty, I checked my cupboard for a fresh bottle and, disaster, there wasn't one


    Sleepless night followed. This morning I was straight onto Scale Model Shop to restock with Tamiya white cap and extra thin. I now have to ration myself awaiting emergency supplies to be shipped but I can relax knowing that John will get them to me quicker than any other supplier.


    I will sleep easier tonight..... Bad modeller running out of glue ops:

          I once found myself - totally kit less. It was a dark place, not something I enjoyed. However, I believe that moment or darkness made me a little stronger, and I grew a STASH............................................

                  I know you'll hate me for saying this Graham but I have 2 spare Tamiya thins , 3 mr cements thin and I think 4 humbrol liquid poly, plus other types of Pva gorilla stuff etc etc I think I've got more glue than I'll need for my life time!!


                  I wish you'd said earlier as I could have got you out of a sticky situation


                  Kind regards
