On the bench #10

Ok, this is almost one year since my last On the bench post but living with a spinal injury can throw a bigger than usual spanner in the machinery sometimes and last spring it did… I’m ok-ish again and I’m back modelling but I had a long period where it just wasn’t possible due to severe migraine and dodgy eyesight caused by various nerve damage I guess?! I started tinkering with a model around Christmas and...

I live in the south of Sweden – a place I partly moved to in order to avoid snow because I’m not a fan of snow. In fact one might even say that I hate snow! This is what I woke up to on Tuesday morning… sigh. The day before this there wasn’t a single snowflake outside, nor was it cold, but most of Europe were given this gift by the easterly winds and a lot of it! The schools are closed and many major roads are...

One the seller tried to resend to arrive before Christmas again but it still failed to arrive and...

…and then we’re only two weeks and a bit until Christmas and I can only wonder where this year went? The last couple of weeks, or more like six weeks, I’ve been having a really annoying cold that’s been coming and going without ever really breaking out which has affected my eyes and made modelling harder and tiresome. Tirered eyes that is and it makes concentrating on small details hard, which isn’t great...

I don’t know what happened but it’s already the end of November and in a few days it’s only a month until Christmas?! This year went quick – that’s for sure! The last couple of weeks I’ve been planning what to do next year in modelling. What projects to undertake and which group builds to join, and I think I’ve committed to more than I’d planned to in both departments… Projects and...
