Forced Sabbatical

Postby expat » Thu Jun 13, 2013 2:39 am

Well after my unplanned stay in hospital last week, I have a forced sabbatical from my MGB renovation/rebuild. Scurrying around under her, bent over her etc is not good for the lower part of my body right now. That gave me a problem, what do I do with my hands...............My wife suggested (to prevent her being the most touched up woman this side of the equator......got to keep those hands busy) that I start a new model project...............So in the words of Rolf Harris........."Can you guess what it is yet"?????

Some of you may remember I spent about 2 years building this (Ten minutes here, half and hour there)

Well now I am building this...........An Ablatros D.V.a

A Mercedes straight six (just like my trusty BMW :D )

I think if my wife had here way I would be on a certain list in the UK, but after 23 years of marriage she is use to the odd bum grab as she passes by me............

She tells me to fire up the sim if I grope her too much :D

Nice to know I am not the only one!

Good job Matt! :dance:
