How do you make time for food drink and sleep considering the progress you make each day on various models

Well Bryan as you have asked, you wouldn't believe how much I have to do on a daily basis, I love the model building work as I suppose it's an escape from it all!
We have , I say we, me and the wife ( we live separately ) look after our own land here in Cornwall, I then also look after another 100 acres or so of pasture and woodland. We have 8 horses, 4 cats, 2 dogs, 1 sheep and a few bees.
Time is precious for sure, I have my own business, I do my own cooking and house work all with a degenerative back disease but morphine helps! I shall keep going until I can't. I have given up riding motorcycles and showing cars though, Phil.

Phil your space-time continuum must be in such high speed that the Einstein's General Theory of Relativity applied, ie, the "Time Dilation" effect occurred. :shock:
