I have been absent from modelling for a few months and hope to use this GB as an opportunity to re-invigorate my MOJO. I have been perusing the stash and found quite a few that fall within this GB's guidelines (all 120mm of them), so I will start with something sandy, and if time allows do something out of this world.

Best I can say for now.
Belay that. I'm a definite. I'll try and get one done early on.

Re-think. I have arranged for a special satellite laser service which will indiscriminately obliterate everything outside the boundary of all CD's.
This came to mind, for some reason...

I have a couple of simple ideas, but getting a matching cd/dvd is the block.

I don't think the CD title is essential; I believe that 'extra' points would be awarded if there was a link :-D

My CD won't match that's for sure!

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

I'm struggling a bit to find something that, literally, 'fits' this GB. I have a few ideas to look at so mark me as tentative for now, please, John.
