Model is looking great Jeff.. and the Moody Blues.. amazing! "Nights In White Satin" is easily in my All-Time-Top-Ten.

Justin Hayward has a new record out on Monday.. and apparently it's really, really good..

Well folks I am calling this one done. 13:43 T.T. Wish that was Chippie hours in my log book.

A little something awaits me at this end like all my blitzbaus.

So, I have really exposed myself through musical selections. And Mike, I will look for the J.H. CD after Monday.

I started my Magical Mystery Tour with the Beatles and will end the same way.

Thanks for looking everyone and keeping me company.

Well you deserve a wee dram after a completion like that, Jeff. That's a great looking build. Great idea on the foil for the boots as well. Saves having to paint them.

That looks really great Jeff, a quality build, well done. Enjoy the Glenlivet, you deserve one after that.

Good choice of whisky too.
