About Me

No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

H is for Homemade Halftrack

This is a bit of fun which came-in with a mixed lot of AFV's from off of that evilBay, I was bidding on the lot for something else, but this was with them . . . 

 
. . . recognisably the old Airfix Sd.Kfz 7 tractor for the 88mm Gun, it's been quite neatly converted into a GS-wagon/workshop bodied version, just needs some markings, although it's going to need rear wheels and some paint to stop the melting! If you recognise the work, why did you let it go? OBE, box-ticked!
