Fubar Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Thank you Dave, Thats very kind of you. Re work: only you know when it's right. About 3 years ago I had 12 months off on 'The Rock and Role' .... Jeezus it was fun for about an Hour.......but modelling and gardening managed to keep me sane just ! Some good mates helped too (Les , Skip and Paul), taking me to Corndon Hill Flying. The forcast up to next monday doesn't look over brilliant , but I will not need to water the Garden ! A photo of your Albatross would be nice , and brighten up your diary, Best wishes Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isoaritfirst Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 All that pent up energy, guess you will be thrashing your Willow all over the hill this weekend then. Just wondering where you got all your polishing rags from? A previous life maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Dear Diary, It seems that the local Flora have been very confused by the week of summer we had in March here in Wales. The trees over my back fence think it is now Autumn and are shedding their foliage all over the place. It's not even Summer yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Ed Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Got early, did work stuff, loads of laundry and cooked some food basics for the upcoming week. All because girlie and I were heading out to a long lunch. Now she has mailed to say the weathers to horrid to venture out? Too bad to sit in a restaurant? Oh well, I hear there's some kind of footy match on TV down the local. And I have the bits to fit out the Needle. And a couple of tunes to learn. And a bunch of invoicing to do… Wish I could go flying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appologies if you have seen it else where. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=JR3RCzNFdmU Chris When it comes to enjoying your work, a sail and kite designer I knew had as his first job as a creator of sphical shapes from flat cloth in Brazil where he designed lingerie and swimwear. He'd design during the day and the stuff would be run up overnight. The following day two Brazillian babes would model his creations in his office. He had to give up after a year. His kites and sails are awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isoaritfirst Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 You could try consoling your self with the fact that its SE today and a long walk to Packetstone, also if it's going to rain anywhere it always seems to be there, our furthest distance from the car.
