He might be my son. Hope 'is Mum's name isn't, oh never mind! I'm keeping the viddy too. That is a first IMHO and should be done more often. Of course if you Google "sleepy British guy talks mostly nonsense...", 200,00o hits later. Well done Guy, and beautiful airplane model too. Yes I had a part in the shenanigans, but the ringleader was (commotion follows, racoon attacks man).

Poor old Soulcrusher, didnt check his PM's and he still will have to walk the plank with the rest of us conspiritors. I dont care what the punishment is, it was worth it and Im keeping Guy's video for laughs.

Guy is aces and I wish he was my father.

Besides it was all Daves fault

Frank I'm really not liking it at all to be honest. Here I am a co-conspirator and I did not even get to enjoy the whole thing because I never read my PM's! I can't claim innocence because I did receive the emails and now I must endure Guy's wrath. Oh well thats the price you pay sometimes. In my defence though from my point of view the whole thing smelled like yesterday's diapers even though I was unaware at the time of the conspiracy. At least old Guy's happy. he is probally sleeping with the kit under his pillow right now.

Apparently Sean you are not to far off base. Aaron sent me a PM informing me of this dastardly deed when he set it in motion. I failed to read my PM in a timley manor and have just now read it. So I guess I can no longer claim to be innocent in this conspiracy. At the time it was happening it did seem a little strange. I actually did a search for the kit on eBay and a couple of other sites to see if there was one avalible for Guy. So Guy I will accept my homework with the rest of the lot. Sean I just found your PM also and will respond tonight so check your PM's later. I love the video Guy. The emotion captured on that video was priceless. Aaron that was one heck of a prank. I whish I had read my PM's earlier I could have enjoyed it more. Guy enjoy that clog an be sure to post some pics when you get started on it.

Sorry no Ro 37 progress yet. I have not been all that well lately so not much building going on just alot of sleeping. That and trying to figure out how not to destroy my Fokker VII for the KotS GB. I am hoping to at least start on it soon.

Ha I am glad the Tea was sent before this little incident. Still I will have Dee taste everything first for me now and observe her carefully.

Can bus drivers go postal?  You told all your English Friends that I messed up did you? Oh there ya go just soil my reputation here as a mild mannered humble page lurker.

Better Aarons as its going to be warm there? Heck Going to be? It has been up in the mid 70's all winter save a day or two.  We did get one bitter cold night of 39. PLus 4 hours of freak snow! Then next day 68. Got flowers weeds and bugs year round!  Last night had a Possum and Racoon side by side eating the left over dog food like they were the best of friends.

Frank, Dont think the fact that you have about a squillion other GB's on the go, gives you some sort of leeway Mr. We need results. Its about time the Frankenstyro stand Mk3 made an appearance.

Yikes!  Looks like Guy is on mission.  Think it's time to hunker down and do some building while he plans his revenge.  Looks like we're all in for it now fellas.  Boy, I sure am glad I am not Aaron right now! Shock [:O]

Sean, perhaps i can get some sense from you, i swear i can hear giggling this side of the Atlantic. Was it the same kit sent to all of you's for a photographic outing? I need to know. And yes id told all my modelling chums this side, that 'Theyve all got the bloody things, some didnt even realise they had em', I also said, 'Aaron Fecked one up and hes been sent another for nothing'...Oh you lot are swine.

Steve, You are by no means off the hook. What are you saying about my Nekidness? So my manly phisique resembles Zoidbergs from futurama! I was once an athlete ill have you know. God knows the years travel fast. Wingus and Dingus still love me though. Probably because if they wait long enouh a crumb of food will fall out from between a flab roll or 2.

Bondo, Noticably quiet, im sure you were another major player in this 'Get Guy' scenario.

 What can i say. You guys are frickin Ace. My dearest wish is that someday ill have the chance to meet some if not all of you in the flesh (Though not too much flesh, i might add).

All round Aarons for a Brewski or 2? Better Aarons as its going to be warm there!

Bow [bow]

Guy, Guy, Guy. Well what can I say except that its all Daves, ummm Aarons fault. He made me do it. I for one thought it was cruell and unusuall punishment. It must have driven you nuts to see all those BV's popping up all over the place and yet you kept your calm when I said I had two of them. Your a better man than I my friend. Alls well that ends well.

Great job on the Macchi by the way and your skill with the AB is fantastic. It turned out great.

By the way, thanks for not standing up and jumping for joy in your video.

Guy - now do tell , what did you think of all those BV 138's popping up all over the place. I would have to say my favorite was "Bondo's" kit picture in the garage , although Steves next to the WD-40 was over the top also.. Laugh [(-D] The way those kits were showing up in everyones stash was as common as an old Monogram Mustang.

Doh!!!!

Got the decals/transfers on the G55 last night and I must say Sean that I'm not sure I'm as converted as you are to the dry transfers.  Not being able to adjust them once they are on is a big deterent for me though I seem to have managed to get them more or less in the right spot.  The flag on the curved fuselage side was a little tricky with the stiff carrier plastic and one of them stuck to the backing paper.  Eeeek!  I was able to carefully lift it off with a xacto blade and place it though so I got lucky.
