Very impressive realism. Liking it a lot mate

Glad you were ready mate, I must admit after I'd lit those joists, ( they went up very quickly as I'd given them a liberal coating of meths ) as I was trying to get my camera on the phone the back of the foam board caught light ! That was exciting, would I loose the lot, but grabbed the water spray just in time .:smiling2::tongue-out3:.

Yes Bob, I think I should get one,. Christine keeps one in the house for such occurrences.
Was great fun, and achieved the result I wanted .
