Hobby time

So, i have now taken up Airfix and other plastic modeling. Well I had but then our son moved back home and I lost my craft room. I have managed to fit most of it into the bedroom but most days there are towels and clothes on the table.
Before I lost my space and mojo, I did manage to complete one Model and start another two.
The completed one is a Heinkell 111. As i have not modeled for over 30 years it is not as good as some of the other offerings I see on the web. How they manage to get them so detailed I will never know.
 I was quite impressed with this effort. Hand painted rather than spray painted. Very difficult to get the airmen correct as they are so small and my eyesight is not as good as it used to be.
I want to try and get some diorama training done, I have some old model train scenery so hopefully I can use that as it is nearly the same size.
I have recently started a landrover and a hurricane. I tried to mask the hurricane but it all went wrong and has left it looking a mess, good job they are not that expensive. I will just have to go and get another one.

Madness in charge

What is it with this stupid president of the USA. We will make America great again? America has always been great, but a shared greatness. Now it is heading to an insular great. Countries being alienated against it. People being abused by it and treated like inferior beings, just like they were when they treated their own country folk as different. America is a huge country, large enough to take extra citizens without damaging itself. They could even be used to rebuild the infastructure and industry that this president keeps going on about. There is a massive issue within their country, that many countries have or would deal with, which they are not willing to. GUN CONTROL. Children, adults from all races and religions being killed daily. They blame it on mental health. What a feeble excuse. How did that person get hold of a semi automatic weopan? How did that child get hold of a pistol? Easy, there is no control! Basically anyone can buy a gun, whether it be a pistol right up to

Why

I started life as a little molecule in my mums womb. I grew and became a child of life. When it was time I got kicked out of that warm place where I got fed all the time and I could sleep all the time if I wanted. It was really bright when I came out into the open and then I saw someone holding me in there hands. Then they looked at me, god! what a sight! I started to scream but they just kept making silly noises at me. Then they washed me and put me in this cage that I couldn't get out of. I get kicked out of some where nice and warm and get put into a bloody cage! Over time more and more people started sticking these ugly mugs in front of my face, I started to get used to the fact that not everybody can be beautiful. This woman started sticking things off her body into my mouth and then this warm stuff started coming out and it was quite tasty. Life carried on for a few years and I got bigger and bolder. I had to do what I was told when I was told to do it, or I got hit or shoute
