You gotta love that New Zealand history documentary of 25 years of the New Zealand 737, I guess they could make a doco 50 years in New Zealand registry. Concorde and Avonhead primary school, in the school library and all the talk was this Concorde and Boeing 747, the aircraft books were always getting taken out by me, other big one on the stage incoming was the Galaxy, I thought back then we would never see these in New Zealand only four years later both the 747 and the Galaxy overflew Christchurch on separate occasions .. and the Concorde , that become a regular visitor ! so much for my...

Still is Mike ... bloody rain , but the farmers down here really need it. I am 90km inland, and we only got the edge of the rain - barely 100mm. Our farmers are very happy with that. The traditional May rains have been very erratic lately, and if your soil moisture profile is not right by Queen's Birthday weekend (early June) there is no point planting your winter wheat, so you write off half your yearly income. :unsure:

Ok now we have the raw material and with the measures done it is now time to practice my knowledge. You can see the keel plate , this is not the entire length but from the point off the bow to the rudder post known as the PP @ 530 ft length. This is not the full beam of scaled 55 ft as the hull curves up to the armour belt. and side hull plating. So lets turn a cardboard box that was to be rubbished into something that is going to look like this , Idea this time of the year I can get the hull near complete or at least were I can build other smaller parts on rubbish days , and today is my...

My big problem is personally correcting all the individual E-Mail details on the various Services; Council, Rent, Gas, Electric, Water, Shops, various Businesses, Hospital, Doctor, everything else I can think of....etc...etc...etc.... True, Paul - for those things you will need to login to your account at those suppliers (use your old email addy) and edit your details to update as required. Some of them might pick up the bulk email you sent to all your friends, but there's no guarantee businesses etc will know how or even be able to change things - it would have to be done using the...
