One hundred percent agree with this. All you will get is advice, encouragement and support when posting on here Peter. I’ve never seen adverse criticism and don’t think I ever will.
Oh, and Alan is selling himself short. He is more than decent as a model maker :thumb2:

Ouch! That's harsh - I lived down the road in civilised Poole and Plymouth. up country in Salisbury (and beyond) - right up to enclaves in Jockland and the land of the Shamrock - even foreign lands like Suffolk and Daffyd! I'm a well-rounded xenophobe I think! And ... I can spell Smythe in several permutations - ! So there sweet cheeks!!

.. Not harsh at all Steve ..
Didn't mean anything by it
.. Just Plymouth, Pompey rivalry mate... Nothing meant
... When you're from Plymouth and did your apprenticeship in the yard,and went to Argyle for the footy, you get kinda tribal!!
During my time,I lived all over too,and pleased I did if I'm honest .. So easy to get sucked into the "Stay at home" mindset as a kid...
... Seen too many of my "School Friends" who never have left the Town... that seem happy... But SO dull?!!

Not for once did I think any slight was intended, or taken, Andy. We've both lived in a Service environment - and what's more we've absorbed that quirky sense of (perverse) humour that comes with the experience! I really enjoy the banter on this forum, I'd love to meet up for a beer (or two) sometime (and include some other like minded persons)- now, that would be a craic!

OOh - are you dissing my hole in the ground? That hole was absolute Savoy mucker!
Steve

No dissing….Salisbury was my hole in the ground…..

Sounds like a plan mate - sometime in the Summer perhaps? Under the lamplight, by the Citadel tur ... or, on the Strip!

The Citadel,in the Summer sounds good to me ...
Which one though?!

Let's work on it and see if anybody else is interested perhaps!

Yes,and,to stop bunging up Peter's thread,we should take it to PMs.

Evenin' all. I am English but living in France. I did a lot of car models when I was younger - about 40 odd years ago - and have got back into it seriously again in the last year or so. A lot has changed! mostly for the better of course.

Apologies for the late welcome been stressing over my Yamato
I lived in France for about 8 years about an hour from Limoges a place called Cheronnac (87)

I'm always late...got side tracked with the banter and pot holes on the way here.
Welcome aboard Peter.

Cheers,
