Glad you managed to get out a celebrate, congratulations to you both. We are still under fairly strict control, unless you want to go into our lovely city to demonstrate with your spray can, then it’s Rafferty’s rules. Rich -

It’s amazing how much time and effort can be saved by making up a simple jig or gauge for any job. Even a spacer behind hand rails makes a neater finish , a bit like frenching all the screw heads on light switches or door hinges. Costs nothing, just looks right. Rich -

There’s no point getting old if you don’t get crafty! Bet you don’t get ferocious rivet counters round your way? Still, it’s like painting the inside of a signal box, you know it’s right even if no one else ever sees it. Rich -

I think, as a species, sharks have survived worst things than Covid19 . I wouldn’t worry about their health. Rich -
Judging by the pictures of the average Naval planes, I wouldn’t think performance came into it! Great idea though. My late father was at Mountbatten about 1940, got posted to Glasgow, but that’s another story. Stay safe, Rich

There’s probably a 3ft radius curve involved somewhere, it’s just something some of us have to live with. Great work resurrecting two old dogs, they’ll do fine. Rich

Compared to the chock-block ends of my wire-in-tube efforts sticking out of the fascia, that’s a bloody masterpiece! Chapeau. -

Play nicely, you two! Obviously he’s busy self-isolating, or maybe , like me, cannot get his mate to come round and sort out all the scary tekkie bits . Rich
