    Jo i can remember one of the old boys at club built a diorama with a lysander making a drop off or pick up in France all done in very muted colours with the headlight beams painted on to the ground and thinking without a light box or any real special effects its somewhere in France in the dark so simple but so well conceived.

        Thanks Mike, great to see you about again.
