Hi Steve,
Thanks for looking in. Funny, it takes a forum 13,000km away to meet somebody only about 5km away.
You are so right, working outside is a pleasure. I generally like the heat - but this is really pushing it.
Kind regards,
Garth

ISSUE 100 COMPLETE!!!!Woot Woot

Another milestone reached. Not much to show, except 2 more sails.

FYI, I've been booking my time fairly accurately on this build and except for the Launch and barrels, received early on (Around issue 6), I've spent 367 hours on her thus far, 89 Issues complete, with an average of 4.1 hours per issue.

Kind regards,
Garth
