These days I escape to the shed for a few hours peace from modern life, to immerse myself into a world of miniature to paint tanks, soldiers, planes and ships, to build vast landscapes out of MDF and off cuts of carpet, or occasionally actually get round to creating a battle whilst teaching my youngest daughter the finer points of the hobby!
