Guys,

 

A great day at PJ.  The shop is clean, tidy, well-organized, and well stocked.  A real pleasure to visit.

 

I crashed out of my desk chair while thrashing hard on the F1 car.  Lost my sense of where the balance

point was.  Down I go!  Many thanks to the buddies who helped me get things back together!

 

And then PJ Proprietor Doug helped me bandage my arm wound.  ⛑️. Thanks, Doug!
