Its very difficult with 3 and 5 year olds running around.
Modelling will have to wait another week or so!

Have you tried nailing just one foot to the floor. They can run round in circles without taking up too much room!

....but remember to nail them at least 2 yards apart to prevent accidents!

hitting your thumb is not possible when you get the kids to hold the nails and you swing the hammer!!!

Well delivered the relatives to Manchester airport, so they will be back in Oz by now.
Dug up 3 x30 ft. rows of potatoes and so I think I may now get some modelling done.
The St Chamond needs further painting and I must try to do something for the Maritime competition.

That is really an odd beast, but looking good.
