The weather was nice here in Adelaide today, only 40deg C, nice enough to do a video of my sand pit.
Let me know what you think.

madrob: Thanks but that's only the German side, at last count there is a total of 18 TAFV's
xrad: I guess my wife is understanding but I have found that if I give back more than I receive, I never seem to have a issue with the things I like to do.

Well considering it is your Spring on the bottom of the 3rd rock from the sun,I have to ask what happens during the rainy season,or does south Australia have a rainy season? And I would like to say very fine job you have done,just excellent scale battle field,how long have you been working on this project? Saxondog

Saxondog : Won't see spring for another 8 mths yet,
But every now and then we get summer rain.
The older part of the village was built out of ceiling tiles,
they look great and are easy to work with but when the rain comes down so do the walls.
The newer parts of the village are made of cement,
not as easy to work with but they are water and wind proof weather naturally and are fire proof (just in case)
The Mayor of the village celebrated there 2nd anniversary very late last year
