Default Some serious DIY modelling!

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Tim Streater
saying something like:

That didn't seem to bother Biggles.


Biggles Snr, you mean, Shirley?


Well that's the interesting part. We have Biggles flying Camels in WW1
so he must have been 20-odd then. Next we have Biggles being very lively
and biffing bad guys in the 50s, when he must have been 60-odd.

Don't know how he did it.


Britain's first Terracotta Warrior. Wheeled out in times of national
crisis and put back in the cupboard when it gets a bit quiet.
