Just been for a wander round the house to make sure everyone is OK and to stretch my legs. I thought Mrs. Ian was watching Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory - but it's was only Dickinsons Real Deal...

The snowmen are hanging on. Just.

I had to make myself a cup of tea.

And is it me, or does the Panthers tail look like it's been taken from an Me262?

Oh, and I've done some more sanding.

They're OK, Bruce. That's just where I did some sanding and some of the paint has rubbed away revealing the blue plastic underneath.

I'm not brave enough to try Revell acrylics. I do like their enamels though.

Actually, don't worry. Mrs. Ian has just remembered me and is resuming her duties by putting the kettle on.
