      Bolt Action plays really well in 15mm and has a superb activation mechanic.

  2. Thinking of building my first exhibition layout.

  3. Decisions the model railway show at Taunton or the model show at Yeovilton? All I need is to pick up modelling supplies such as paints

  4. First beer in a while and I end up ordering a dj models O2. Not feeling guilty as a present for losing a lot of weight.

  5. Nice relaxed Sunday morning thinking of tackling a cooper's craft wagon kit

      Depends which deployment and duration. South Atlantic, yes. Anywhere else check 'work' load first I'd say.

      Mostly toward South America for this trip. Besides need something to do whilst duty.

      Do it then. Quiet deployments and courses away from home are prime modelling time.

      A nice little scene for that would be Ivo's Bentley parked on the road...and the man himself by the lineside with camera in hand!

  20. Finally sealed my workshop hopefully, there won't be any rain in there this year or the next coming years now to think about painting the walls.

  21. On holiday, in Charmouth. Already planning a trip to Pecorama and a few visits to some old stations.

      Cannington viaduct is worth a trip. If you get to Weymouth, the walk from Melcombe across the fleet is beautiful., and there are plenty of relics along the way. Have a great holiday.
