Re: My stash just grew again (2017)

[Chris Payne]

Following a tip off from Falcon (Chris P) I popped down the hill to the local Aldi and picked up a pair of Airfix Jet Provost Gift Sets for £4.99 each 

I can see this doing wonders for my EKFP Total.

That's mildly annoying
I doubt my local Aldi will have any JP's
(Possibly because I live in Germany)
Still anythings possible...

A Hobby Boss 1:72 Ju 88 C-6 (actually as a donor bank, but the remains might be kitbashed) and a Revell 1:72 M60A3 tank, to be converted into a real world M60A2 ("Starship").

Italeri/ESCI did a 1/72nd kit of the M60A2 - I've got one.

I find drinking Rum neat to be more rewarding.

Drinking dark rum neat (or at all) 'rewards' me with horrible nightmares - every freakin' time, like flicking a switch. White rum? Fine...

Dark rum (neat) for sipping ; Gin (with tonic and a slice of lime) for drinking

They did!?  Must be rare, though. Mine will have a different starting point, though, because I bought a resin turret/conversion some years ago and recently stumbled upon it. Lacked a hull, though, and with the recently procured early M60A1 aluminium wheels from Silesian models I have now (finally) a complete "Starship" model at hand.

Got two kits given to me today by some friends, airfix 1/72nd scale red arrows Hawk and YZR 500 MotoGP bike, not sure what the bike scale is, but taken gratefully as I am sure I can wiff both, or pass the bike on to someone who builds them.
