Apologies are now in order, and it is also time for an admission now on my absence for the past few months.
In short: End of July I our the house on the market, and got an acceptable offer within 2 weeks, then had a fraught couple months finding somewhere that ticked as many of the boxes as it could, finally found somewhere early October, by when the rest of the chain below us were getting a bit of a you know what on, and we pushed the process as much as we could to get it all done, and us all moved in the week before Christmas!!!
So Christmas this year was a bit chaotic as I was assembling Ikea furniture, (still got to get more ordered, now we are in, and have measured up the rooms etc,).
Hopefully I can in a few days time get some modelling started. Still got loads of boxes of kits to unpack but they are going to have to wait a few weeks until the furniture is ordered, delivered, and built, and then unpacked properly. I do have a bit of a clue where to find a matchbox kit at least, as I purchased a couple up at Telford, and they were then packed separately at the end, and can easily be re-found.
This is the kit I built on Christmas day
) although there is the classic Revell GB to consider...
