          AN HI Tim yes im pleased at how she is comin on if only i can get all the stern wired up ok i'll be there but the stern section will be more complex i think as the units all in there require different voltages an ive also go to build the guns turrets as i keep foggeting about them so still a lot to do

            Not enough wiring...

            She is looking superb Chris, the steam unit is working a treat I see.

            Glad your back is better...just don't over do it.

                        I think Mark, maybe referring to your work and the model...as, er the...'dogs-do-dahs'. If so, then it be a compliment...if not, he may just have a fetish for dogs.

                                After your test float, I have every confidence she's going to be great, and if we all turn up, just think about all of the 'help' you'd have :surprised::surprised:
