There you go Fuji-------I knew you would have a piccie of Torriggia-----------went there when it was JEREMIAH CETTI' S place, -------- long before Molinari got a hold of it.

Bugger it------did my arm in again yesterday for no apparent reason--------beavering away nicely all morning, stopped for lunch and found I couldn't lift my arm. Guess I should have waited a tad longer before getting back in the groove.
95 degrees forecast for today--------that's bloody warm by anybody's standard let alone the UK.
Got the most wonderful display of sweet peas--------cutting them twice a day, all the neighbors have been given them, whether they wanted them or not !
Suppose to be going out for a Father's Day treat with Sam my youngest------I got myself all spruced and scented ready for it--------watch this space
Started the mark2 version of a Mystic-------got a better overall feel for it this time, no fuss or pretence, just smoothly rounded everything on a chunk of nicely figured oak. In fact, this one may be just good enough to send to JOHN SHERLOCK for detailing.
You may get more than usual posts over the next few days-------my right index finger is unaffected and still functions adequately, along with the brain box which requires regular usage lest it should seize up altogether and cease to function.

Daughter Sam bought a house right on the beach at Elmer Sands last week, today I walked the beach just because I could !
The big eats have been put on hold until after the weekend, she was going up to the o2 arena tonight to see Celine Dionne in concert !
will be firing up the old Webber in a while--------we got pork filet mignon , new potatoes, fresh garden peas and asparagus. Really slumming it tonight.
No pudding though-------just strawberries, Raspberries, flat peaches and fresh cream ---------life can be a stone bitch sometimes !

Am I good on the griddle or what ?
In all modesty------I am magnificent, and i schucked the peas!
Pork turned out "Jest Fine JR" Her who shall be obeyed had done all the preparation and marinating and fruiting and wine pouring tablelaying and clearing up after-------but there is no denying, without the grill master,it would have all been for nought.
We master chefs are not taught------we are born!!! Tonight we found out who was boss,I rest my case!

Well, I can tell you were impressed--------not to worry, as my sainted mother used to say "Worse things happen at sea".
Thursday AGAIN, I swear blind there are more Thursdays in the week than any other day!
Giving the shop a rest today to try and get a bit of life back in the arm, daughter Kim is taking me out for the day, maybe a spot of lunch at Chichester Marina and who knows what the day may chuck at us !
Before that, I have a little foraging to do at the car boot sale------still looking for that lost treasure, the El-Dorado of flea markets. I have renewed faith after somebody found a FABERGE brooch valued at over a million sterling . Just don't seem to have "the touch" I did when I was younger!

Not quite the bargain hunt I hoped for, unless you count a pair of "Cane Beachcasters" three reels and all the plugs and flies to last you a lifetime, for the princely sum of £5.
Found a chap with an unlimited supply of 3" grey duct tape for £3 a roll or two for £5-------- always think of "SWITZER WINGS" when I see a pile of duct tape !

As many times as I saw those Switzer wings run I never personally saw one have an accident.

Have it on good authority that Switzers were the biggest single users of "Duct Tape" and were largely responsible for keeping the firm in business!
Maybe Rich can answer this one---------were there ever two wings the same ? Every picture I have ever seen is different from the last one, every concept I ever made of a wing is different from the previous one. But that's mainly due to my inability to do two identical anythings !
At present I have been working on a couple of "MYSTICS"-----they're different as chalk-n-cheese, can't finger the reason why. Maybe I got better, or maybe the left arm packed up on purpose. Construction is totally different from anything I have put together before.
All I have to do now is find a simple way to do gearcases, then find a propeller source!
My R/C guy seems to have either changed his mind or forgotten.
Bought a pack of four that are around the size I want, made in plastic , outa China, reasonable price. Asked if I could buy a hundred but in metal----- no, no, no, one size does all, no discount-----just plastic and only plastic------so solly!
Some days !!!

Had a very nice relaxing day out with daughter Kim. Wound up at the Chichester Yacht club for lunch. Sat by the waters edge with a pint of bitter and a plate of tempura prawns. Does it get any better than that?
