That image came out much larger than necessary, would a kindly Admin somehow reduce it to a much more sensible size please?

I started in the sixties with aircraft 1/72 as was the norm then, early ones I remember were a Black Defiant and a Red Arrows 'Folland Gnat', as well as the Spitfire and Hurricane of course!
Married early at 19 and 3 kids turned up in quick order, so no money or time for model making from age 10 till around late twenties when I had a 1/12 scale Tamiya Lola bought for me and that got me back in! made a few 1/9 and 1/12th Motorcycles as that is my real passion, then stopped again until around 4 years ago.
We have sold up our house and most possessions and are now full time House sitters, looking after homes and pets while owners are away...
Pretty relaxing lifestyle travelling all over Europe for over 10 years now, but it does make me smile when I see and hear of peoples 'bench time' as I am usually using the kitchen table in various locations and like looking back on my few builds over the last 4 years and remembering where I was when I made them!
Storage obviously is a problem so I sold several on Ebay, the fun is in the build anyway.........
