WELL Dave i hope you get your wheels fixed as its like losein your best freind isnt it to be with out a car an as for this whatchamacllit built well aaaaaaaahhhhhrrrrSorry for the delay Chris, had some transport problems.
I mentioned all the dashboard warnings on my motor were lighting up. Got it to my garage OK, but when he tried to get it into the workshop, it wouldn't start. By the time he got it going, it was the end of the day - and now he's on holiday for a week, so no motor.
Not normally a problem, but this weekend my two nieces have to get to university; one in Swansea, the other in Wrexham; and my brother doesn't drive! Normally I take them in my car and would have to do two journeys as I couldn't fit all their stuff in. Bro thought it would be a good idea to hire a van big enough so I could fit both lots of stuff and do both on the same day to save him money! Back in the day as a driver, I'd have had no problem, but I was much younger then. Took some convincing, but two days it is! I lost two days sorting all that out, and I'll lose two more this weekend.
Not to worry though, I know you have absolutely no interest in this build so the delay doesn't matter!
Meanwhile, I have done just a little bit more.

Got the whole of the undersides of the wings painted which will save a lot of fiddling around with masking later, and finished the basecoat in the wheelbays. Some weathering will be added later in the build. I'm hoping to get the wings together tonight and finish dealing with the step in the fuselage.
