Very ambitious plans, good for you
I have had a hard enough time waking up and getting to work this morning!
Tough to get back into real life again after 10 days off

My modelling Plans 2016:
I have the War Games Factory Zulu wars figures on my list to do this year...have the British soldiers already and the Zulu guys have shipped from E Bay
POP GB...a scene from Chity Chitty Bang Bang
Finish my 1/16 Fujimi F40.....for crying out loud
Easter egg plane sig..have a few kits to choose from
Floaty things Gb...I have two Bluenose Schooners to chose from
Tamiya GB...a F1 car of some sort

Now that I put this in writing, it looks a bit over ambitious for me!

Just getting up and fueling the furnace with enough coffee to not eat people?

MY goodness Andy, JUST reading the highlights made me exhausted. Where do you find the time?

I'm with Scott on the trouble getting out of bed this morning. First day back at school so the traffic has been awful and I think I am still shell shocked from returning to work after the Christmas holidays.

My modelling plans for 2016:
Sell spare bed to make way for new desk
Purchase new desk and put computer on it
Setup old old desk for modelling
Purchase an airbrush and compressor
Build my Eduard Spitfire and Tamiya Stug IV
Purchase a model for the Tamiya GB and Pacific GB
Probably purchase something for the Floaty Things GB - Im quite intrigued bu this GB

There seems to be an awful lot of purchasing, I better add to the list ask boss for pay rise too. As for selling the bed, I have lost all hope for humanity. I had some idiot phone up asking if the single divan bed (which has pictures in the add and is 6 foot 6 by 3 foot wide) would fit in a Ford Fiesta, wtf?! The conversation didn't last too long.

He could always put the bed on the roof and hang on to it with his arm out the window ;)

Scott, I dare say if I suggested that they would have tried and probably ended up taking legal action against me after somehow managing to lose and arm on the way home and wrecking the bed :lol:

Get back to uni at the end of Feb, hopefully get through another year without failing miserably and on the modelling side of things hopefully I can scrape together enough spare money to set myself up for airbrushing and just generally honing my skills. Hopefully I won't blow too much cash at the LHS and hell, I may even end up working there. That'd be nice.
