Being a French Canadian, I've been mad at myself for not learning it proper. Growing up, it was mandatory throughout grade school and for 1 year in high school. It was so easy in grade 9 that I breezed through it and took the pass and walked away. I should have moved up a level and tried....anyway, I'm determined this time !
As for modelling, the Boomerangs are done and dusted. Got a base coat on the Fulmar as well. I was going to up-gun it to a pair of 20mm for each wing, but widened up and decided to just finish the darn thing !
