Thank you all for the very warm welcome, I'll do my best not to ruin to many models but as I said in my OP it's been more than 50 years since my airfix days. I have dabbled in other stuff during that time however, learned to fly model helicopters, a mixture of Hirobo, Schluter, Kalt and one or two others whose names escape me. They all had to be rebuilt on numerous occasions, not much glue involved though. I fear that painting will be hard especially weathering. Never mind I'm here to learn.
Regards to all
Tim
