hi barry
i wouldn't go congratulating me just yet on the carrier as there's still plenty to do but finished or not as long as it's still running i'll be there and hopefully the old fella will tag along for a day or two. even though it's not ready i've foolishly booked it in for a show this weekend and it's down for the battle reenactments so even though i've got no rad or engine armour i'll have to go, so tomorrow night i'll be fabricating something from ply to at least look the part and make it safe to be in the back. i do wonder sometimes if this hobby was a good idea  is anyone up for a carrier race when we're down at beltring ? i reckon there'll be 5 or 6 carriers there and i don't mind stumping up for a crate for the winner, which of course will be me with my light weight ply armour  rick

the wooden wonder
thinking about it, it might look even better if i varnished it the same as they do with those classic italian motor boats.
