29. One step forward …

 As Bruce once sang … two steps back.

The liquid lead referred to in my last post, combined with the softening effect of the Uhu, has caused the rear bonnet to bulge and split. My fault, I think I overdid both.












So where do we go from here? Well I’ll be cutting out the two affected sides. thankfully both flat and sqare, and replacing them with plasticard. I’ve dug the lead out and I’ll use something else - a chunk of white metal maybe once the repairs are complete.
