Good morning from 'The Dockyard'.

Just a short update as i'm going camping this weekend [don't laugh] with my good lady. Fortunately there's a pub near to the campsite, so the weather won't get in the way!

This week i started to fit the mesh to the lower half of the guard rails on the upper deck. Not quite finished as I write this, but should have all of that complete by the time I post an update next week.

In the attached photo, the mesh is ever so slightly too short if you look to the right hand side it, so will have to remove this piece and make another section. If left, there's nothing for the wires that hold it to pull onto.

Phil

Getting towards the painting stage i see you mentioned. That will bring all those hand made parts together really well.

Hope your camping trip is going well. You cannot let the weather beat you if you live in this country just have to get on and make the best of it.

Tony

Happy Modelling
