Hello Mobbsie,

 

Now I know why you have planned such a busy schedule for the coming weekend. You just want to make sure you get your animaatjes-slapen-17818.png. Rest assured, you will get your animaatjes-slapen-14217.gif without having to use any animaatjes-muziek-15358.gif

 

Take care,

 

Anja

Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are.

Sjors,

your San Idelfonso is great!

I will be happy to follow the next steps after your good WE in UK.

Pierre

Thanks Pierre,

 

I'll do my best to get another update but the weather is to great to sit inside…..

But I still have 3 weeks  :D

You are right pierre,

 

When I was sanding the filler blocks in the bow and stern of the San Ildefonso, I was sitting in the garden with a nice gold beer... :D

Then live is perfect!

Thanks Aldo,

 

I want to work on her but first the Le Mirage…...

If I have enough of all that rigging I can jump to her  :D

I buy myself a milling machine because I'm on that stage for the SI.

But first I have to see how it works.

Never worked with such machine so Anja keeps the medical kit close by….

I echo the others, Sjors, safety first my friend, these power tools can be really nasty, but they sort of become a "necessary evil" because they can make our model-building lives much easier if used properly  ;)

Best regards,

Aldo
