It is all serious stuff Horus. These chaps even have like mini sack barrows with a special cradle to sit their vessel in when they transport it back to the car park.
But I DO give them credit for superbly made scale models.

I'm agreeing with Grandad on this one in that it does seem rather boring to me that older guy just sit around sailing their boats. That being said I totally agree that they're probably building 'to scale' models with exact mini parts and what they're doing takes lots of skill - however - to just stand about sailing a boat IS rather boring (or would be to me)

Bringing a little colour this time, I wasn't intending to put up Xmas tree etc till later this year but then I thought why spoil a habit of the last 24 years, ever since Roy was born on the 9th we have always put our tree etc up on his birthday but this time I've kept it all to one corner.
I was trying to capture the colours of the led lights & star along with the fibre optics but with it all flashing off & on it was a bit difficult to get all no matter how many times I tried.
