| Hi All,
I have just joined your corner of the web and hope to enjoy my visits. A little about me, well my main interests are in paddle steamers and early lifeboats and i also enjoy model engineering. On the paddle side, i am an administrator on paddleducks and as such i feel for anyone brave enough to take on a forum. well done all.
My current build is an 1899 PS Waverley and am looking at a possible build of either a Rother or Watson class lifeboat.

| welcome Peewee to our humble little ( but growing ) corner of cyberspace.......I too have followed your build on Paddleducks of P S Waverley......and it's lovely to see her progress.......perhaps, and I'm sure that I speak for many on here, we would all love to see your build of Waverley on here.
By the way I have two metcalf model kits for sale.the Watson Anne letitia russell unbuilt but missing a box top, and the Waveney Scout .....both unbuilt but older kits.....if you were ever interested in either or both, I would gladly part for a price including postage.
Enjoy your stay and I hope it will be a happy one.

| Paddlers have always intrigued me never having built one. I have fancied building a Racecourse Minesweeper from WW1 but its something on the backburner behind lots of other builds - builds I am comfy with!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] | |
