Swimming Against The Tide

Space Rocket!!!!!!

A small boy lives in our house!

He's not immediately obvious to the outside world, but he's there. He likes to eat sweets, refuses to eat his greens, doesn't wash behind his ears, never brushes his hair, has a semi-automatic sub-machine waterpistol which the grown-ups make him keep in the garage, rides on trolleys in supermarkets, likes groovy cars with doors that open upwards, talks a lot about "goodies" and "baddies" in war films, types 80085 on his calculator from time to time and sniggers, but most of all - loves getting glue & paint on his fingers, and building really cool aeroplanes and SPACE ROCKETS!!!!!!!

He's therefore chuffed to bits with his new Airfix kit! :-)

Notes from responsible adult: 1. One thing in the above list is untrue - all the others are accurate. 2. Small boy would do well to remember that he still has to build the 1:72 B1B Lancer that he nagged me to buy for ages AND I got all the paints for (he SAID, when he finished the Vulcan that it would be the B1B, then the Lancaster and he really specialised in bombers!). He also has to help his little friend build the 1:32 Hunter, and he should really finish making the cardboard space station that he's started so that the astronauts have somewhere to stop off for a cup of tea on their way to the moon!
