You fool! That was a Grade 2 listed tree!

No doubt a representative from the DCMS will be round your door at any moment.

Nothing to worry about then, Steve.

PPE  ;)

Progress with the first of the town tiles, which has had the inside of the buildings painted, the buildings fixed into place with connecting walls connected, then more rubble and sand debris added to blend it together, followed by a coat of black acrylic as an undercoat (of sorts: it's mostly hand plastic and sand which doesn't need much undercoating).

Usual phone picture quality I am afraid:





And because James wanted to see it all undercoated:
