Hi Snake, 

It's an Australianism that means you wouldn't want to be dead .....

- for all the tea in China

- for anything in the whole world...

Get it?

Cheers......Geoff

Amazing how the setting sun can light any clouds at sunset.

Looks like you got your bridge all rebuilt. I remember when you were posting some of the pictures when you were working on this.

My view is not quite as majestic.

Was a little damp last night.

 

But there was a rainbow.

Still have to paint the spindles. If I wasn’t a fancy modeler I could be done! But no, I have tape it all off and two two-tone everything!

I don't have any to post.... We're packed like sardines over here... ?

Taken earlier this evening via the security cameras, that's the one by my office/Hobby room, while sitting in our flat in London,  the Internet is a brilliant invention,  unfortunately I won't be back home for a while, so modelling has been put on the back-burner until I can get something sorted down here.

I see what you mean with the two tone paint job. When we redid our deck we used the main posts from before and painted them white. The railings were replaced with black powder coated metal so zero repainting needed. This does look good thou.

Tom, I hear you! I painted the exterior of my whole house with **** near model quality attention to detail last year. Took every weekend from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Looks nice though!

Yes Espo,

It's on the southern side of the Great Divide, which runs right up the east coast of Australia.

I lived in some mountainous areas before and always enjoyed the way the clouds would react in some weather conditions. We would be in the clouds for days and snow or rains. Drive down to the valley below and they would be having a beautiful sunny day .
