Here’s to Yorkshire’s stunning landscapes, rich history, legendary tales, and to the people, vibrant and diverse - to those who shaped its past and those writing its next chapter. All toasted with a proper cup of Yorkshire tea. Happy Yorkshire Day and thank you for your support. #YorkshireDay

The Danger Man Mini is done, nice kit from Tamiya. Not too bad to build, any untidiness is down to my ham fingers, the heat and ME. Hope you like my little tribute to the series.
