Hey Swanny;
did you buy that on EvilBay, because I've just thought of buying it last night but the the better half said we don't have any room left for my toys until we move into a house(Just renting a mobile home for now)

Would she accept anything from 30 seconds to 24 hrs as "a while"?

I've got my eye out for the Profi-pack release of that kit. Its a very interesting AC, being designed from the outset as a suicide aircraft. Since the landing gear were jettisoned on takeoff & the pilot had no chute, the fate of the pilot was a "fait accompli."

I have my toys sent to work and sneak them home when I know I'm gonna be home before her, cuz if the little lady sees me bring another one home... I'm... well... more than just a bit behind this ---> Eight Ball [8]

If she ever found my 40 kits some strong stash in the attic... [:0]!

I have considered on more than one occasion to divert shipment to my office especially since the UPS guy shows up there at 10:45am and at my house around 4pm. It's a real bite to see the tracking program register 'delivered' and I'm stuck at the office.

Swaney, would you get any work done if they delivered it to your office?

Before you knew it you'd have have a small toolbox under your desk, just to let you get things started!!

Don't laugh, I've heard of people who do that!
