Crikey, not many pictures in here are there?

Here's a couple showing progress to date. The deck is stuck on at the front only, with the rear waiting for the slidy door things to be fitted. Lots of tower whatsits waiting to go on, plus an exceptionally small Walrus!

Oh hush!

Front end of the deck stuck down tonight - the sliding doors don't slide any more, as I lacked the extra fourteen pairs of tiny hands that would be needed to hold them in place whilst putting it all together.

Ayup Adrian...

That Walrus is rubbish!

Ayup...

It's just one shortcut after another...

You just can't get the staff can you...?

Slowly plodding on. Now the top deck is attached, I've started adding all of the various fiddly bits. Not much to photograph, and the one I took this morning is a bit fuzzy (

), but here it is anyway...

Hi Geoff,

You had HTML disabled in your profile, which would mean that you could only see the script I use for pictures rather than the pics themselves. I've updated your profile to allow it, so you should see them now.

Cheers Adrian, looking good

Plodding on - another coat of oak on the decking, plus attachment of various little bits and bobs on the deck (not a clue what the vast majority of them are

).

I've also built up these chaps, ready for attaching to the fuselage... sorry, hull...

Looking good Adrian, keep it up, that big bit is the Bridge superstructure, we could do with a glossary of terms - how about it Ratch, Im sure the lads would love to know about naval and hawse pipes, scotchmen etc

I suspect Ratch is as lost as I am! We need a salty sea dog to fill us in
