Is that the Allard in the photo it's a bit fuzzy to really tell .
I see the wiring has improved

Fuzzy? Did you see the bigger version?

I spent hours tidying up the wiring....on the house. This remains temporary until Ronnie decides I've finished the house.

Where did you drag that one out from?? I couldn't find it in my picture library! Must have dumped it at some time.

Well done Gordon.
That is another scenic track topic, here on SlotRacer.
A good start of 2022!

A bit cold in the garage for spending much time decorating. It was fun to have a few laps on the track though. Grip was noticeable by its absence but after clearing a bit of dust it improved somewhat. Temperature around 2 degrees and the air full of moisture probably didn't help.

We did thanks Anthony. Quiet, just the two of us but we did the whole food and drink bit. We never exchange presents as we reckon having each other should be enough of a gift for anyone!  

One of our friends here is a music professor who teaches in the UK so commutes! It did mean he could bring us the puds and mince pies that I didn't have time to make.

Everything else is available here now that even France has the same stuff in the shops.

Slot cars are still a way down the list but the occasional trip to the garage is still fun.

Goodness me! How the time flies, we've been here three years already.

I've abandoned the rubbish of corporate hell, chatbots that show no sign of intelligence and general idiocy over at SFI and have been looking through some of my old threads here. This thread started as the last of our time at the old house.

This house was a sight to be seen. Heavy, dark and depressing but with a certain potential.

Now:
       

 In the end, we didn't use a builder and did all the work ourselves. The trips to the dump with rubble were interesting, I'm surprised that the trailer is still in one piece.

Almost done now, the bathroom will be done soon. We just have an en-suite at the moment.

The track is still unchanged in the garage :-(

Good to see you alive and well Gordon - time to start some slot cars again :)
