Stand by your beds
« on: January 09, 2013, 03:49:38 AM »
Hi Guys;

The wanderer returns, I'm getting this overpowering urge to build a bipe, things haven't changed in the family troubles, but I've got to get my mind back in gear and build, now what to build, my thoughts are turning to a Roland, what do you think?

Cheers

Welcome back Pete, model building is great therapy.

The Roland is a good choice even though i have not tackled one yet, all reports point to it as being a great kit. Another consideration is the new Hannover, it is sooooo easy to build, it virtually just falls together, a brilliantly engineered kit.

Whatever you build will be good, it's just nice to see you back with us again.

Glad to see you back, mate!  Had some similar issues with my 30 yr old son a couple months back.  Visiting your kid in jail really sucks, but this fantastic hobby and these wonderful blokes helped to keep me positive and able to deal with him in a reasonable manner.  I think a Roland would be just the ticket.
Cheers,
Bud

You couldn't have picked a better kit Pete to get back in the swing of things. I enjoyed building it more than any other thus far.

Cheers,

Chris
