| hi guys. sorry i havnt been on for sooo long. i have had no time to myself for the past 6 months and the last thing i want to do when i get home is turn on the computer.
anyway, my grandad passed away recently and i became ill which ended up in me leaving my job. i am now looking for a 9-5 job and have big plans to start modeling up again. i still have all my kits and the Musashi thread is dying to start up again. i also have a lovely model of the mercedies mclaren slr to do, just got to get some spray paint to enable me to finish it.
how is everyone, i have missed being on here. i take it we have some new regulars on here as well!
all the best.
Richard |

Just do what i do Richard and think of the great memories and laugh at them if they make you happy. Good luck on your job finding im sure you'll find one. Keep going with your models. Im going back to college tomorrow so that will be fun. NOT!!!!.

| Nice to hear from you both again, you have both been very much missed here.
Sorry to hear of your rough time Richard, having worked with people in the catering and hotel industry for a number of years now I am well aware of just how demanding and anti-social it can be. I hope you find what you are looking for and get back to modelling and posting!
Char, college was by far and above the best four years of my life. I worked hard but also played hard and developed some lasting friends and the strongest sense of belonging and comradeship I have ever known. I hope that you can get as much out of it as I did and get yourself started on a career path. At the end of the day I hope that you are happy in what you do and I am sure that is what your Dad would have wanted for you.

| | All Round Modeller | Welcome Back Richard & Char,
Us regulars are still here and yes we have a few new one's now too which is nice to see.
Topic of the Month seems to be the Perkasa MTB but there is nothing wrong with that, we have had quite a few posts on it already and now have more members joining as a result of doing searches for that very model.
Anyway, hope you are both keeping well and nice to see both of you back again.
At present I am sat looking at an Airfix 1/72 DH2 Beaver Fuselage next to the 1/8th R/C Version I am building...God it's SO tiny !!!.....I will have to take a pic to show you.
Regards....Mark

| Hello Folks. News today is college is going great. Enjoying it and creating a website. I have been going out hitting the clubs. Work is going great. I unfortunatly didnt get my promotion. I have the new xmas temps starting this weekend and i am the one who has to train them.
More news is i can't believe how quick this year has come. I have been on here for 2 years and i have made loads of friends who have helped me through difficult times. Talking of difficult times. It will be a year since my dad (Nigel.d) has passed.
It has gone too quick.
Thanks for everything you have done on here folks you have been a big help.
