You was always easy amused Phil.
Nowhere near as bad a s 76, yet. no plauge of ladybirds, which almost caused my Sgt to put the Viva we were in into the Dee esturay.

The ladybirds !
You're right., Ian.

Von and I had to dive into a shop....There were SO many flying around on that particular day.
Almost like the Biblical plague of locusts...There must have been hundreds os thousands, at least !

Cheers - Phil

No.....I look more like Alice Cooper than ever.
(Without the make-up, I hasten to add....and, of course, I wear glasses, rather than contact lenses nowadays.)

Cheers - Vince.

How much make-up are you wearing now?

I don't drink coffee to wake up. I wake up to drink coffee.

Strolling along the beach this morning with the mutt and it was like being in the Baltic - almost everyone there was speaking Polish. I am assuming the country has now ground to a halt. Still very hot in the northwest and the plume of grey from the moorland fires is still evident - drifting towards the Wirral today - Bad luck Ian!

No smoke here, we did have to put up wit red arras doing circuits and bumps for a couple of hours late mornin, afore dey went off. Noisey buggers. (Was at Broughton doing a big battlegroup game).

Mind you hope it be out be mid month, got to go to JoS in Sheff.

I really must do that one year. some of those 6mm displays look mightily impressive on Peter's site.

Has anyone else experienced this: in this hot weather, when I shake my Vallejo pots before pouring on opening them the paint is already coming out of the little nozzle, even though the pot is upright. Has the heat thinned and expanded it?

Westmarcher

Possibly. However, I find that happens with some of the metallics under normal circumstances.

Btw, presumably the paint is drying much faster(?).
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Lord Kermit of Birkenhead

Not so as you'd notice....
