    Whoa!!!  Just accidentally stumbled into a thread that I can only describe as a full on handbags at dawn spat fest.  I think I will steer well clear of that one...

    Am I grumpy because a) I've had a busy week, b) it's hot or c) there's some proper door handles here?

    1. Dr Gerbil-Fritters

      Dr Gerbil-Fritters

      Apparently some of those door handles are In Charge  Of Important Things.   I fear for us all.

       

      Never mind, I expect there'll be a track/gauge/scale war breaking out soon to distract you.

    So, farewell Wingnut Wings, closed for good it seems in April.

     

    They made great WWI plane kits. And, for a while, Peter Jackson could be thought of fondly as doing something other than multi-installment screen hogs.

     

    Looks like I'll never get a W.29!

      Dr Gerbil-Fritters

      Indeed.  A friend of mine has been a fan since the beginning.  He had accumulated a cache of over 40 unbuilt kits...

       

      As they are now going for mad prices on ebay, he's the unintended owner of several grands worth of plastic.

    The trailer for the new Top Gun movie being released next year looks impressive. Tom Cruise doesn't look any older.

    Why is it, during weather like this, when good, upstanding folk need to have their windows open, that some anti-social barsteward finds an urgent need to have a bonfire?

    My plan to model Worting Junction is slightly scuppered when I discover my shed is about 50ft too short.

    1. Dr Gerbil-Fritters

      Dr Gerbil-Fritters

      i can identify with that... made worse because the possible expansion site now has her ladyship's shed on it. Right in my way.
