Hospital appointments? Hope your both okay.

If it's any consolation, my wife Sally fell over and broke her arm in two places a couple of weeks ago, and a few days later I broke my toe. So we're both a bit useless and grumpy right now. But at least we're not moving house, very stressful.

The shape of the van looks great to me, but it's difficult to pick out details on a photo, especially with the primer and sanding. But I trust you, it will be great, it already looks great to me.

I've had a few transitory strokes over the years and after one in September, they booked me in to see a neurologist. She could find no reason for it in what's left of my brain so I will be in and out of the damned place having who knows what other tests over the next month. As I couldn't hear a word she was saying, she has also referred me to the deaf gits department so I might get some implants for free!! Ronnie has to come with me so we can hear!! She is OK apart from her age related stuff like bad back etc.

Sorry to hear about your bones, must be painful for you both. 

I am trying to pretend the house move won't happen. Until pen meets paper and money changes hands, I don't believe it. We've had people who appeared very keen before and they bought somewhere else at the last minute  

The shape is the easy bit! It's getting details that look OK at this scale that takes the time. Not everything can be 100% accurate as some of those details would disappear. It's figuring out how to make it look right without it actually being right.
