The Little World

And to the membership. I realise now that it was a mistake to paint the dunny with Estapol and rub a long-haired cat over the seat while it was wet. I have learned the error of my ways.

This has not prevented me from using the wrong shade of semi-light grey on the Norwegian dive bomber model that was to be presented to the Rabbi. I now realise the religious significance of my actions.

Or so it goes. If you read the scale modelling press the sins of the modeller are manifold. Wrong colours, wrong aerials, and wrong weapons load-outs are just the start of the problems. In many cases cockpits have been completed without seatbelts, or worse: without $ 50 of after-market resin knobs for the throttles. If pilot figures have been painted, many of the clothing choices have been wrong. Fashion errors on the top of historic inaccuracy.

They used to burn people in the town square for this sort of thing, and everyone benefited. I think it’s time to get back to basics and exercise the firm hand of government. No more Mister Nice Guy in 1:35 scale.
