    I think she's on to me...

    Postman arrived early, and I got this unpacked before the missus was up...



    When she came down I got the usual "Seriously, another one?" so I tried the "No, I've had this one a while..."

    To which she replied "Dat lijkt me stug...". Which is Dutch for "I doubt that very much...". Well either that, or her tank recognition skills are improving... or both!!

    The empty sprues and tools next to it may have tipped her off! Maybe you could say "this one's for you dear, so we can spend quality time together". It hasn't worked for me yet, but you can always try....

    By the way, if you're up to it, cut open the right hatch. That's where the doggie toting crew member goes. This is on my StuG IV, but it's the same.

    The more screws it takes to reassemble a tank, the more likely it is you left something out!

      Well, I am planning do do as much work as time and money allows on all my tanks, and this one will be no exception. So there will be hatches opened and lights fixed. Already experimenting with green SMDs and the notek lights...
