Thanks!  I thought I didn’t have this but I do - however, many people don’t, so I’m sure it’ll be very appreciated!

Meant to get this done before Skipper returned from basking in the sun and chasing dusky wenches across the quoits court ...

Thanks Simon - I love it!  Dunno about chasing dusky wenches though - I can no longer chase anything.

BTW, once upon a time there were sentry boxes outside BP gates, but not any longer - the sentries needed protection from the public!

That is how it is in my memory - with the guards under orders to ignore the punters, regardless of what they do (urban myth or not?); hence the little brat and her ice cream

That happens outside Horseguards parade, and the sentry boxes in Whitehall, other side of the buildings. Tourists are really horrible to them poor sodyers, and they even have to stand completely still if a dog decides they are stationary so fair game as a weeing post.

That doesn’t bear even THINKING about.

Standing perfectly still for long periods like that is very bad for the joints.  I hope they get really good medical and retirement benefits!

This thread is here for Skippers freebies.

Thanks.  Everything is working fine.  Check here for comments, news, freebies, etc.

Like the man said, I have good news and I have bad news.  The good news is that the great model of Highclere Castle (aka Downton Abbey) is finally finished, complete and entire, bundled and ready for download.  Quite the most difficult model that I have ever attempted and also one of the most rewarding.

The bad news is that making Skipper’s Models website has taken more time than expected, so we are not yet ready to launch and hence there is (as yet) no way that you may download Highclere Castle.  However, I am in constant touch with my ickle bruvver (he’s only 73, poor kid) and he’s quite hopeful of a launch in the near future.  Keep your eye open.

As recompense for the delay, I have uploaded a freebie of an inlaid coffee table at ShareCG, so get on over there and grab it.

Happy Easter, Skipper!  Glad to hear you’re well!

(That tot of an Ickle Bruvver sounds like he’s doing well too… he’s older than my dear papa!)

That’s a lovely table, Skipper - it reminds me of one I used to own. Thanks!

That looks to be a very nice table, thanks Skipper

Oh, this is trying my patience! 2nd time trying to post a reply.  Gave up on the 1st attempt after 4 ‘login required’ screens, which changed to what looks like a refresh of the ‘post reply’ page, with all text lost.  This 2nd attempt is currently up to the third ‘login required’.  Now on 3rd fresh attempt ...

Tis indeed a very nice little table,

Simon we think that some part of the problems with the site has been caused by the fact that DAZ 3D use Cloudflare as a caching service, and Cloudflare have been trying to back up Spamhaus during the DDoS attack that they have been experiencing. It certainly does seem that those of us this side of the pond are experiencing more problems than those on the other side.

Nice table Skipper. Thank you very much.
