Hi Jim.Yes I’m not doing too bad.Down to one stick.Re the fence.I’m sending the wife down to see to it.It might take a while as she will have to balance the creasote on the handlebars.She is a game.old bird.Been looking at your cracking models.Beautiful.Pack up the day job and go into mass production Regards Charlie :laughing:

Thank you Charlie, I wish I could but I don’t think anyone would pay the price for the models, for me to get me own island like Richard Branson or Cliffie Richardo I’ve got to keep hammering the motorways, as long as they always make people happy it’s a pleasure building them.
Glad your mobile Charlie, as for the fence well in actual fact the fence that’s always in the pic is the neighbours fence though we do have to keep our side up together but part of it has blown over in the past winter winds but no attempt has been made to right it so I think we may have to come to some deal over a new one, so don’t bother bringing the creosote just bring 6 fence panels and some concrete posts and were cure it that way :laughing: and I’ll get a few bob off the neighbour!!!
Regards Jimmer

Re the fence Jim.How about getting the heavies in to sort your neighbour out.For a start Mappo will do.I would put my name down but as I’ve lost four stone I’m far too light.Anyone else out there who would fit the bill? Regards Charlie :laughing: :laughing:
