I really feel for you, Bob. Life is sometimes very harsh but, as they say in Naples: "the night has to come to its end".
Glad no falling pianos or anvils have showed up. Beware of lights at the end of the tunnel ...

Sadly a scan carried out this morning has shown a tumour in mum's bowel plus lesions. Will know if they can do anything after a meeting with surgeons and the cancel specialists. A op is out of the question due to her age and frailty.
My world is collapsing around me, thank god for my rock, Julie
Sorry, this is really not the place but I thought you mind friends should be told
Off for a walk to try and clear my head

Bob, I think it would be safe to say you and your family are in all our thoughts right now. All we can do is hope your mum manages to get all the help she needs at this awful time.

Finally dragged myself back to the mighty Hood. Sorry for the total lack of progress but other things on my mind. This might take longer to build than the actual ship lol
So started to remove the horrible degaussing cables as the Eduard set has pe ones which are much better. In between hospital visits I have been watching a few ship builds on YT, and thankfully the builders have built the ships slowly and passed on some very useful techniques! Greatly improved my sanding and the need to do a lot more prep on the hull!
This took ages but will get there, also various sink marks and scratches to also sort out. Surprised how poor the hull is
Sorry again folks but hope to carry on the work
