Love to see their faces when they wonder what kind of moths or termites made holes that shape in the office door! :D

Still a clever way of doing it though.

Hey, if it doesnt cost me any thing, and is'nt bolted down, IT'S MINE! @) (Well, apart from the six screws holding the sign to the door)
Ive just started the labourious task of filling and blending the hull :( Im using carplan quick fill ,from halfords,as it fills and spreads over large areas, so I should hopefuly have a nice smooth, blemish free hull very soon. :D
