Hi Ron just returned from another trek across the country . Well it's good to see the name name plate and a smart one at that . Have you made the display stand?

Love the ship. She is nice and clean and just a great looking ship. I never thought of a name plate for my ship but seeing yours, I know now that it adds some class to the ship when sitting on the shelf(or atleast that was where mine will go eventually). These boards always give me one more thing to think about when building.

Thanks Dave, I still can not generate any energy to start building again at the moment, the cancer seems to be o/k at the moment, I see the specialist on wednesday of this week, hoping I have some more good results like last time. :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:

Im looking in and posting on all the fabulous work going on, makes me feel ashamed that im not doing anything, :wave_1: :wave_1: :wave_1:

Should the Admiral feel ashamed for not doing anything due to the fabulous work most of which his and a couple of others' skills and talent have inspired, what should us humble kit assemblers do? :huh: :huh:

I really wish the best about your health... Perhaps some good news on Wednesday generate some building desire too... :wave_1: :wave_1:

Best regards...
