| Pan Am Clipper girls interesting task reminds me what a wonderful therapy model building really is,over the years it has brought me into contact with some really interesting people who would have been totally lost without a good creative hobby,from a chap who made models that fitted into a matchbox to a chap who made full sized wooden tank replicas down on his farm ! we use our fingers and hands,our eyes and above all our grey matter,once more how many people come in from work and just cannot wait to get into the den to do some building,all the worries of the day vanish as we become engrossed in our world of miniature,yes it takes all sorts and we expand on our knowledge by reading about our subjects,and we all have our different interests,wonderful as there is never a dull moment in our lives,long live model building as a therapy.

| Are autobahn rest stops at all like the rest stops in something about mary?
In all honesty, when things got tough as a boy growing up, I could always escape into building a model. I can't say enough how it helped me to grow and to learn - it still does! God bless the wife for putting up with all of it. |

| Amen to that brother!
However...I guess we often forget that while we are enjoying ourselves with our "therapy" our signif. others are enjoying theirs without us! When you get right down to it our hobby is one of the great secrets to successful inter-gender co-habitation!
Ps... Not sure about the rest stop in the mary film, I was making more of a statement about the Mg34 belt-fed solution to escaped and recaptured POW's in WWII, Now I guess id better hide in the forum "Cooler".
PPS. Anyone seen my catchers glove?  |
