FINALLY, I have got this one finished.
Having had an extra week's leave forced upon us with all the students being finished early, I was knocked off on 18th December. The original plan to visit DCOS' family in Somerset was canned with the new restrictions which left me at home with nothing better to do than to tidy out the hobbies room. First, the huge pile of car-boot stuff went to the charity shop as they were open again and accepting donations, then my bench was cleared of everything that had been dumped in it during the fallow period since my last bit of modelling which was (scrolls to check the previous post) end of June!!!
Over the last two evenings, the figures were finished (I admit I had been putting this off and even if I had been able to find some modelling time, would possibly have made this my lowest priority), some spare fence rails knocked up from offcuts of the original fence to dump beneath the tree, a tarpaulin made for the back of the truck - blue roll liberally brushed with mod podge and water, folded, creased and painted once dry - and everything positioned then once I was happy, glued into place. Once it was all set, a quick blast with compressed air to remove any loose bits and it's ready to go in the cabinet.
As an added bonus and for a change of scenery, I had a run out to Driffield today with DCOS and saw Andy! Sadly we had time for only a very quick chat before he had to go and help sort out the street after the market stalls had cleared up.
Now, if only I can pull a sicky for tomorrow and get out of the nonsense of 25th December, I might get my next part finished project done!
