    Game on?

    Well, after a long(ish) lay off from ye bench. Methinks the Mem Saab may have relented and has hinted at allowing me to move into the house from the garage. As the weather and such has put a right dampener on dabbling in the noble art of modelling!! (I tend to use the garage as a storage area for all the garden furniture. Which after the recent storms I'm glad we do.) Starting to regret down sizing now!!!

    Diplomatic relations have been strained of late due to me being bored, (bored = getting under her feet and generally spoiling her tv time!!) So, after lengthy and prolonged discussions, she has decided 'maybe' it may be to 'our' best interest if I bring my kits inside and utilise my once PC desk which is now my gaming desk as a work area for my models!!

    Hopefully, I can be up and running by the weekend. I won't be able to airbrush, one, because mine is knackered, and two, I would imagine the noise of the compressor would get to her!! So back to brushing!! Hopefully, I'll be back and the real bench in the spring. At least I'll be able to continue.

    So I may be a happy Waspie again soon!!

          TELL swmbo!!! That's a very risky procedure. Could easily result in a serious breakdown in relations. Maybe ask politely, suggest or hint at would be a better strategy :smiling2: :smiling2::smiling2:

                          That's very true mate.
                          The way you message you sound to young to be over 70! :flushed:
                          As long as you are young at heart and in the head, you have many more years left

                              Are we allowed to put our feet down?
                              As for great long steps!!! Not possible!! I'm like an old Roman gladiator! Short stocky legs so giant steps are right out buddy!!!

                              Thats more the approach I'm in favour of. I may be old but I feel I still have a bit more left in me which I wouldn't have if I took the wee woman on!!
                              Yes! The G&T approach I can see being a good start. If not for her then certainly for me!!!

                              The only thing SWMBO and I have, is a black belt in our wardrobes!! It's verbals at 20 paces for us!! Tis safer!!
