Exactly. I couldn't do as good a job in 19 DAYS let alone 19 hours. Magnificent.
Is this your sanderling?.

thanks guys. It is a lovely kit and if I hadn't been so tired I would have added more stowage.

Cracking work OT. Not meaning to be critical but do the figures look a bit big?, they seem a tight fit?.
Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!! :lol:

They came with the kit so I assume they are correct. The Jeep is a very small vehicle. The important thing from the SAS point of view was the fact that they were 4-wheel and available.

Missed all of this due to an impromptu mountain bike assault on Glentress forest without so much as a 3G connection. You have made a lovely job of a classic kit. Shame about lack of parmo but a great result all the same.

Don't worry Flak the Blitzbau House is on for Friday 21st about 6:30pm so expect a full Parmo to make an appearance.

There is a place in Radcar, just down the road from us where you can get a Parmo, topped with Kebab meat and another Parmo on top!
I recon that must be close to 6000 calories. It's bound to soak up some booze. 8-)
I won't be going for that though. North Yorkshire Trading Standards conducted a survey of 25 fast food dishes. A large parmo with chips and salad contains about 2600 calories and 150g of fat. We will of course get the evening started with Fish & Chips - it is a Friday after all.
