An update on the current build, the Heinkel He 177 and I am annoyed with myself as I copied the colour scheme for one aircraft for the correct green camouflage scheme but discovered it was not correct for the aircraft I am modelling. Hence, some brush painting of water thinned acrylics required. It shouldn't detract because I still have some more airbrushing to do of the finished scheme.

Some sub-assemblies now attached and left aside to dry thoroughly away from prying cats. Sherlock decided to sit in the middle of it all this morning. I put everything away and fussed him and he is feeling much better. Booked in for his surgery next week poor little fella.

Tree surgeon also booked for next week and it will be a busy week. Work has a number of staff on leave and it's my busy week as well. Another major incident which I can't say much about although it has made the media. In good news I was asked by my manager to join the bank for the team and it was agreed that after a good break I will be offered occasional days for duty work and assessments both of which I do enjoy. Even if I do that for a year or so it won't be too onerous and it was good to have several staff including the consultants ask me to do duty work. It's nice to be appreciated but after next week I will glad to reach Saturday and rest as the veterinary surgery and the tree removal will very much unsettle the cats. 

Do you know, I am sitting here listening to Mott the Hoople and The Faces with multiple sirens via the open window. They have been on and off all morning which doesn't bode well. 

I must away as unusually it is dry and the sun is attempting to break through. Time to set the chairs up in the garden and enjoy it whilst it lasts.

TTFN.
