What else to do when the seas bubbling

[Norman]

Just a thought really, whats anyones \"Other\" hobbies or pastimes whilst the weather keeps you away from fishing ... ?

Just a little snippet here of mine, it`s another forum I visit, take a look at the section \"The building site\" in particular the threads \"scratch built sports model\" and \"scratch built sports model thread 2\"

http://www.flyingsites.co.uk/forum/index.php

This is what it`s all about . . . . . . . .

however read the threads for more in depth info ...


so . . . . . whats your \"other\" pastime ?

I was right into mountain biking a few years back ,mad keen ,used to regularly do 25 miles after a week of nightshift ,I\'m paying the price now though Norman , knee operation coming soon I reckon.
These days I like speed drinking and drinking marathons lol .
Nice plane by the way !

Norman,

that\'s a great read on the two threads in the forum link.

I knew you were into flying them but not to this extent

Great stuff,

There is a place just opened up opposite us on Queen Alexandra Road in North Shields, I\'m not sure what he stocks but I have seen a plane similar to the one you bult in his window along with engines and the like.

Give me a shout if you want some flying pics done and we\'ll meet up

Cheers

Marc.

Looks like a interesting hobby Norman,nice plane as well mate,do you fly your\'s at Blyth on the old Tip road behind the Cemetary ?

Cheers Marc, yeah sure come and take some pics sometime.
Alan, yes thats right, at meggies burn.

I did the online build bit because most of todays models are the ARTF (almost ready to fly) kits that require limited if any building skills and I though I ought to show how to build from scratch to own design LOL as it used to be years ago when I first got interested
