Tell her you want to build a model railway layout around the dinning room/lounge/spare bedroom. All of a sudden your current "problem" will pale into insignificance!

That's not a problem, it's avant garde interior decorating.

Hi Ray

Richard, the model railway club house is only 1/2 KM from my house, but I am too busy with boats.

Mal, no motors in one meter rag and stick boats.

I see Harry’s problem…not enough boats!!

Boxing them up seriously compacts the storage needs and disguises the numbers..

I usually try to have currently used models on display and ready to use. It always seems a shame to me to have them hidden away in boxes after so much has gone into building them. Having said that I am lucky to have plenty of space in the garage to have them on display and, even then, I still have a couple stashed away in boxes!

I`m sorry Richard, along with Harry…for showing us pictures of his boating venues that look like holiday brochures (and are really warm), I am going to insist on you being banned for showing us pictures of your incredibly clean and smart boat storage facility.

When we had the place built the builders complained that they had never put a skirting board in a garage before. I said you've never made a garage for me before.

Lovely job, clean and tidy without loosing all the original patina of the woodwork. She looks absolutely spot on.

Hi All

The Diva is coming along nicely, should be ready in the new year.

My next one comes in the new year, a Nor-Star Wave Princess 34".

It has GT strips over it, they will have to go.

It's a Cabin Cruiser, not a race boat.

Hi All

Only a cleanup, grease the shaft and rudder.

System check and ready for the water.
