What Crisis?......

.....I am joking of course,  but in these strange times there are some things a man must do apart from sitting around,  watching TV and imbibing copious quantities of alcoholic appetizers!
Preparing to begin the polish.  No I am not promoting 'AutoGlym'  but those are the products I use!!!
Anyway,  these are two things that have and are keeping me occupied until they let us out!
All finished including the leather and as a chap once told me,  'A car is never properly cleaned until the tyres are  'blacked'.
These activities are great but just at the present time we are enjoying some lovely Spring weather with reasonable temperatures and under normal circumstances that would mean delightful drives in the Morgan for picnics in the Bleasdale Fells,  Yorkshire Dales or the Lake District.....stopping by the odd local tavern to enjoy their hospitality.
You will have seen this type of wooden fishing boat all around the Mediterranean.
None of that now,  so I am building another model boat to keep me occupied and my wife sane!



This is produced by the Spanish firm Occre based in Barcelona I think and the second of their kits I have built,  the first being the 'Soller' tram.  Now back to my first love,  boats!
Progress,  but oh those bulwarks were tricky!

More on the build in the future.
