MINI THUNDER PATROL

I love this kit art, the Mini Thunder Patrol. There's something effective about placing more or less normal car designs in science fiction settings like this. The background looks almost like a Thunderbirds launch bay.

What do you think?

GOOD MORNING, EARTHLINGS FROM ZEROID ALIEN

Looks like the weather's on the change, here in planet Southport, Rain's forecast later, but for Zeroid Alien and his computer brain it's just another day of trying not to lose his head (and his arms)!

PAINT THE TONE RED

Picked up this nice old red Corgi at the weekend. I think its a Peugeot. A little reddening and its come up trumps.

One of its headlights was missing so I cut a bit of plastic to size and stuck it in.

Silvering next and then vroom!

Where would you go in a new car readers?

GOOD MORNING FROM ZOGG & THE KIDS

Looks to be another sunny day in Planet Southport. Zeroid Zogg and S.T.A.R. Team, Pilot & Engineer have plenty of sun cream ready just in case!

Bloomin Marvellous!

Summer's splashed right in and people and wildlife are soaking up the rays.

Like Missus Frog in our sink pond.

Like the Fisher Price fireman checking the tiny strawbs.

Like this beautiful green spider.

Are you enjoying the sunshine? Have you wildlife enjoying it too?

Mouldy Old Dough

Just found this on You Tube (no, I was not looking for it), a Top of the Pops appearance by the British group Lieutenant Pigeon, performing their big hit Mouldy Old Dough - a British No.1 in 1972. Very possibly the worst song of all time. I recall that in the 1970s it was on the radio all the time, and was later used in a New Zealand television commercial, although I can not recall what for - Lotto or a telephone company ?
