Did you see them coming?

Looks like it is all ready for the boys jolly to Margate now!! Just make a small space in the back to hide JR. We don't want to upset the locals:smiling5::smiling6:

Cracking build mate. Are you using Milliputt or foil for the tarp and will there be any of your famous eyelets??

Steve,
Just a bucket & Spade to add. JR can sit in the back after he has been checked for any source of ignition. I will be using duro for the tarp and yes there will be eyelets lol.

Jim,
I think I'm safe from the men in white coats at the moment they have detoured to Mr T's build. Glad your liking it and good to have you along for the ride.

Thanks Andy very kind of your to say If I can begin to match your eye for detail I will be happy.

Hopefully this will keep Steve happy I have added the tarp from rolled out duro with eyelets:smiling4:. It is laying on some cling film so it can be removed for painting and washing as it is covered with talc at the moment. When it has hardened off I can clean out the eyelets then add the tie downs. I also scratched the wooden poles but they are under the cling film so I will take a pic later. Tomorrow while everything is hardening off I will make a start on the weapons and hanging clutter.

Thanks for the very kind comments especially from guys of such calibre.

Before the American "C" rations were introduced what did the British soldiers eat?. I have some C Ration boxes but not sure if these would have been carried.
