Good morning all. Grey and dull here again today, but it's dry at least. Scrub that, just looked out the window and it's raining

I'm pleased with our performance; and pleased with my personal achievement as it is run number 5!

One thing I'm not happy about is the ground crew figures. Nobody does them in 24th scale, most people end up using the Tamiya 24th scale rally pit crew which is, at best, a bodge. Modern rally crew overalls look nowt like RAF WW2 ground crew issue! Airfix does a 24th scale Mosquito which comes with the pilot, navigator and two additional figures, I have emailed Airfix to see if its possible to get the sprue containing the figures?

That's an awful colour car Jeff I'm glad you had a good weekend though, good company makes all the difference

Morning all, Sophie and the girls are away today, 5 days of just me and the dog We won't know what to do with ourselves, this will be the longest I've been away from the kids since they were born, it's going to feel weird without them
