Thanks for all your comments and I apologise for the time it's took me to reply but the day after posting I got rushed into hospital. I had pains in my hip and could not move, but in hospital I became unresponsive and spent a week in the Intensive Care Unit with sepsis. I spent a full two months flat on my back on strong antibiotics and when my blood levels got back to an acceptable level, I had a full left hip replacement. Now I'm back in the land of the living I can get some work done. Inserted the deck supports and fitted the quarterdeck. Lined the bulwarks snd cut the gun ports and the opening for the timber heads. Assembled the ships wheel and put it to one side. Fitted the false gun supports. This has become a full time job as I am incapable of doing anything else at the moment. One look at the telly book is the biggest incentive to get cracking. Thanks for your understanding, Alan. NikonD60 attached the following image(s): Today is the tomorrow you wished for yesterday!

Just for laughs, when I get bored, photoshop comes in handy. My Mrs just had to be first one aboard! Alan. NikonD60 attached the following image(s): Today is the tomorrow you wished for yesterday!

Alan That was shocking news but i am so pleased to hear that you are on the mend. Fully agree about the tv. If its not some history or learning type programme then i struggle with it as well. Yoyr model is looking really very good and i hope that having this to keep you occupied speeds your recovery even more. Take things easy. Happy Modelling

Thanks for all your comments and well wishes. AGREE WITH ALL YOUR COMMENTS CONCERNING TV. Things are certainly moving with my build. I'd be bored stupid without it. Walter, I don't know if she enjoyed the view or not, but the clout around my ear hurt when she found out I'd put her picture up with a pint glass in her hand! Alan. Today is the tomorrow you wished for yesterday!
