I slog through my job and life with the only release from the stress being this forum and modelling.
couldn't agree more Njaco
but jeez guy's i didnt realise building a few models at the same time as others around the world to a very loose set of rules and the sticking up a small badge to show you've taken part would offend anybody so much !!
I want so many freakin' pictures at the bottom of my signature, there won't be any room for me to post anything. Some people might be agreeable to that As for wasting my time gluing bits of plastic together, I have snow on the ground for 6 months. Those are called bad golf months. We have four seasons here...early winter,winter,late winter and next winter. I hate snow and this is my release. Rant over, you may proceed with your normal forum browsing.
Madness doesn't always howl. Sometimes its a quiet voice in the middle of a model build that says "Hey buddy, is there room in your head for one more?"

....... but wouldn't you guys prefer to be reworking actual air-craft? Maybe some of you do, I don't know, but there must be more value to using your time and efforts than producing, or rather assembling, pieces of plastic.
Yes I would, but I, like 90% of my forum mates, don't live within a half hour drive of a museum or know a billionaire who owns a real warbird. I'd also like to drink 100 year old cognac instead of my regular VSOP. Apples and oranges.

and I'll raise you this, when I was in Labrador we got between 6-7 metres of snow a year but was to cold to use salt hence it was pure white

Lived on the Miramichi for a few they also got lots of snow but nothing like Labrador , had a BBQ on one New Years eve the BBQ melted through the snow and didn't see it again til June
Seems I've gotten under the skin of a few. Sorry about that but like I said, each to his own. For what it's worth, I've been privileged, I suppose, to have cleaned and marshalled the BBMF Spitfires and Hurricanes. Just love the sound of RR Merlins.
I can't match any of your snow photos but as I wish you all a very happy new year, spare a thought for us having to endure 41 (105. degrees today.

That'd be pretty funny (or annoying). Last year we got nailed, mostly overnight, nothing compared to the 6-7 metres but still about 5 feet. This year you can still see grass, which is really strange.
Since the subject has been raised, I'm going to stick my neck out. As a newbie to the site, I personally find them annoying. Seems like a pissing contest to me, who's got the biggest d**k.
Well if you are looking hard enough you won't find it far away. First warning. Second will get you a few moments in the Ether. Trust me.

A bit harsh don't you think.

Its a hobby. Some people collect stamps, some build models.
