lol - my husband has dyslexia, so I am more than used to understanding odd spellings!  Even the spell checker can't cope with his emails!  I'm the only one - but then after 31 years of marriage, I should know him by now.  If you have MS you are ****** marvellous with what you do.  Keep it up.

Thanks for this!  Never thought of using the palm of my hand for veining - what a brilliant idea.  Mine are going to be way smaller than yours, as the shelter needs to be the main focus, but I guess I can use the same principles.  Your stuff is SO clever, always so realistic looking.  Can't wait for your black and white contribution............

omg - I've only just seen this pic!  My granddaughter has been tasked with creating an Anderson Shelter (WW2 bomb shelter) for a project at school and she has asked me to help her make one in the form of a cake.  They used to put these shelters in their gardens and then plant a vegetable patch around it to hide it from the enemy!  She wants cabbages in it - so how did you make this?  Knowing you it was all by hand and way beyond my ability, but if you have any tips, I'd be grateful......
