TOTAL DISASTER. The curry house was closed.
So back to base for bacon butties & more coffee.
The Val is getting some decals on:

Re: Blitzbau House - The Builds ***underway***
Great shame about the Tempest decals OT. I experienced the old, thick 70's Airfix decals during my Gnat blitz and whilst they were a bit of PITA, at least they held together after 35 years in the box.
Val appears to be responding well to having her bottom stroked however as for the curry house, I don't think any of our local ones do a lunchtime session either, so you'd have been stuffed here too.

Who thinks we should have a sweepstake as to what is finished first?
Kit or cardiovascular system, know where my money is!

Well we are calling it a day. The Val turned out really well considering it's older than us.
So a small tipple to celebrate.
I will definately finish the Tempest soon. I have coated the decals with MicroSet so am hoping that will fettle them.
A big thanks to all who chipped in with comments & advice. So, to sum it all up:

Val looks great, nice scheme to. Great building, OT.
Too bad about the Tempest, we can't really foresee decal trouble, can we.
