Good to see you back here, Ronnie!

Old members remember your contribution to this community, and latest members can see that your name appears on a lot of old threads.

And the roadster-builders forum had been created at your initiative, if I remember correctly.

Mental health is important too, and I'm sure going back to your builds will put you back on the rails body and mind!

Keep us posted

Smile Thanks chaps

Thank you Martin & Sylvain .

Other than lacking strength & stamina, I feel very well in myself once more.
My head is in a much better place & very much looking forward to the future.

Going to clear out my workshop over the winter ( Get the boat out of it )

Hope to be all ready in the spring to pick up where I left off with my Roadster & F27 Builds.



Here is where I was at with the Roadster build.

Not long before I am agonizing over engine choice once more.
1.8 Zetec, 2.1 Pinto or Vauxhall Red-top

Its nice to see you back on here Ronnie, it seems like a lot of years have past since I first met you at the kit car show at Westpoint.
I have to admit Falmouth is a lovely place, I been going there once a month for the last three and a half years, but sadly that will end next month.

What a small world Terry

Bideford was the home port of the boat in the picture.

That photograph was taken in the estuary, just up river from Instow cricket club.

Beautiful location, very much enjoyed my time there whilst preparing the boat for her tow down to Falmouth.

Cheers Mike.

Certainly looking forward to pottering about with my build once more.

Had a New tig welder Christmas before last.
Still unused but got a feeling that is soon going into action, well if I can wrap my head around the digital control settings.
