    That is just brilliant Alan, my missus supports my modelling and helps out now and again. Nice to have that relationship my friend.

      LOL at the premeditated destination for shopping...That's exactly what i do.

      It sure is nice to have a wife that is understanding of my obsessive nature to collect small plastic models.

          In my case, just as long as they are not in the lounge...apart from a two foot RC boat being sorted...at the moment.

                          Yes mate but you have to be clever every time I'm on the hunt for something I deviously spend some money on her while we are out or I offer to cook a meal for her some silly little thing that I know she will like and then go and spend £50 on a kit or £20 on paint or tools , mind you if she has twigged then she's letting me get away with it because she gets something out of it lol

                                Following on from Ron's sub work and my U-99 wreck 'out of the gloom' pictures I used the same technique, camera, torch and a black cloth to take some pictures of my Bismarck wreck.
