Moving on and turret progress.

We all have to move on from distressing events in life and sometimes just doing something different helps in that process. So today I took Mrs. Woody out into the depths of the Lincolnshire fens where is is so flat that if your dog runs away you can still see it two days later. This is big sky country though you do wonder if sea levels continue to rise will it be bid sea country in the not to distant future? 

Putting those thoughts to the back of our minds we ended up near to Fosdyke which is next to the River Welland close to where it enters The Wash. There is a small copse and a nice set of walks along the flood defenses which we walked part of after eating our £4 CoOp Lunch Deal (other lunch deals are available, etc!). It used to be a £3.50 Lunch Deal but that is inflation for you! On the walk we came across an Environment Agency compound which was certainly secure. .

The EA appear to drag abandoned boats to this location which I guess makes it a boat graveyard. Looking at the condition of them I can see why they were abandoned. I certainly would not be taking to the water in one of these

Back at WMD HQ, an hour with the T34 Egyptian tank turret saw a few more parts added including some lifting points and grab handles. I must be getting better with the etched parts as the six handles on the back of the turret only took about 20 minutes to do. I did not even bother with the three plastic grab handles on the two sides and rear of the turret. With the previous experience of similar parts on the tank hull I just made the parts out of brass wire and used these instead. Again this only took another 20 minutes. There are a few more etch handles to add and a couple of other parts and then the turret should be complete.
