    Daleks conquer and destroy!

    Needing an escape, I recently completed a quick modelling project of one of my favourite TV bad guys, a Dalek from Dr Who. However, I'm never content to build something straight out of the box, so I had to dabble a wee bit with the stock kit ... The kit is one of the two Dalek models that came in the Airfix 'Daleks in Manhatten' box set. Now, I do like the overall design of the 2005 style travelling machine, but...

    Family of Noise: a window into my youth

    Back in the late '80s I was in a band. Then again, who wasn't? It started off as simply mucking about in a mate's garage in Molash - first as "Kicking the Kerb" and then "Additional Noise". Finally we settled on a name that we felt suited us, taken from a track on Adam and the Ants' first album, "Dirk Wears White Sox". The line-up at the time consisted of me on bass, Phil Harvey on guitar, Darren Reed on drums...

    Movember - Final Day

    Well, it's all nearly over ... I've got through the itching, insults and finger-pointing and ended up with quite a nice tash (at least I think so). I would like to thank every single person that has donated over the past month. Thanks to you all I have raised £155 and the team has (so far) raised a total of £535! I know there is still some money to be put on the system, so hopefully we'll break the £600 ba...

    1/32 Mk II Viper from Battlestar Galactica

    Even though I liked the 70s Battlestar Galactica, the re-imagined series blew me away. The gritty "realism", internal politics and obvious desperation of a persecuted species drew me in and kept me watching week after week. Of all the Sci-Fi series I loved watching, this is the only one that I actually own in full on DVD. So, as I had a bit of a break from my current MSc, I decided to build the recently released 1...

Well, it’s been about four days since my last update. Sorry about that, I’ve just been to busy to sit down and take a photo!

It’s really start­ing to take shape so now I need to work out how to tame this beast!

Ten days in and it’s really start­ing to annoy me! I can see it when I look down and it is itch­ing like no-one’s business.

But it’s all in a good cause and so far the team has raised just over £200! Well done to all my Mo Bros.

Figured that a daily photo was ask­ing a tad too much, so I aim to have a new pic every other day …

Don’t for­get that you can sup­port my efforts by donat­ing: http://uk.movember.com/donate/your-details/member_id/614566/

Sorry about the lack of an update yes­ter­day — not enough time in the day to take a photo …

Any­way, things are start­ing to take shape and it’s itch­ing like a very itchy thing.
