That's what it looks like. Hardly given a proper chance, in my opinion.

Picked up Airfix Model World yesterday. Not that impressed with it to be honest. OK I'm only really interested in aerospace and car modelling, but I did read some of the armour stuff in there too. I drew the line at the article on how to build a model house...So, apart from that, a shed load of adverts, and some pretty average build articles.

I won't be buying another copy unless there is something specific in there. MAW was better by a mile IMO. Based upon current model magazine offerings, I think you get *far* more out of reading forums, and they are free and interactive into the bargain.

During the World Cup I experimented with watching matches on my laptop in various loos in the house. One loo was fine but the others had a poor or no signal. I decided watching football on conventional TV was better (and slightly less weird).

Perhaps I should buy a commode?

Why not devise a system of mirrors throughout the house - like Alan Partridge?

I hate multiple mirrors - ever since watching that scene in "The Man With the Golden Gun".
