Progress #3 day 7.
Well, I am not stuck..... I am putting in pieces here, there and everywhere but not getting anywhere! I am finding and fitting pieces that I am not looking for and tossing others to their approximate locations hoping I can find them when I need them. I am feeling some panic setting in already! AND it is raining today so I could not escape into some gardening....woe is me! Billsville Mike is right, this is a tough puzzle!
On the upside I did find the last edge piece and the Damien Rice album 'O' has been keeping me company today.
A nice juxtaposition showing how far the German car industry has come, from the 30hp Beetle to the 560hp M5!
After a devastating fire in 2019, the Paris landmark is scheduled to start welcoming visitors once again in December 2024. Here’s what we know so far about the progress of the Notre-Dame restoration
Notre-Dame Cathedral's 2023 Reconstruction Progress Updates
In 2023, significant progress has been made in the restoration of Notre-Dame Cathedral. Almost 1,000 workers are involved in the efforts, both on-site and in workshops across France. Scaffolding is being removed in phases, and the Grand Organ, stained-glass windows, and wrought iron railings have undergone restoration. Key structural elements like vaults and buttress walls have been repaired or replaced. The timber framework for the nave and choir is being prepared in workshops for future installation. The reconstruction of the iconic spire has also commenced. Overall, the progress report indicates steady advancement towards the cathedral’s complete restoration.
www.friendsofnotredamedeparis.org/re construction-progress/ It’s been four years since a fire ripped through Notre-Dame cathedral in Paris on April 15, 2019. Reconstruction efforts on the 12th-century monument are well underway, with plans to reopen to visitors and churchgoers alike next year, French officials told the Associated Press. How long will it take to rebuild Notre-Dame? The Gothic church remains closed to the public as reconstruction continues, but French officials said Notre-Dame will be ready to reopen to the public in December 2024. “My job is to be ready to open this cathedral in 2024. And we will do it,” General Jean-Louis Georgelin, the army general leading the restoration project, told the Associated Press in March 2023. “We are fighting every day for that and we are on a good path.” In the days following the fire, French President Emmanuel Macron set a five-year restoration deadline, in time for the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics. In 2019, experts familiar with medieval restoration work said it could take about 15 to 20 years to rebuild the roof, spire, and parts of stone vaulting that fell through to the main sanctuary. Thankfully, the current deadline is closer to Macron’s vision.Although the cathedral plans to reopen for both church services and tourist visits in December 2024, the full restoration won’t be complete until 2025, Culture Minister Rima Abdul-Malak told the AP. How is the restoration work on Notre-Dame progressing? While the stained-glass rose windows, rectangular towers, and priceless Christian relics all survived the blaze, extensive reconstruction work is necessary before the cathedral can reopen. By November 2020, workers successfully removed all the scaffolding that had been in place around the spire for an earlier renovation project when the fire broke out in 2019. In September 2021, the government agency overseeing the reconstruction of Notre-Dame announced that the temporary structures built to secure the cathedral’s iconic towers, vaults, and walls were complete. Reconstruction efforts began in earnest in December 2021, including work on the organ restoration and other parts of the cathedral. In February 2023, scaffolding went up to begin the process of reinstalling the replica of architect Eugene Viollet-le-Duc’s 19th-century spire that collapsed in the fire with original materials including oak trees cut from French forests. The spire will also again be built with lead, which raised concerns from both health and environmental groups after the 2019 fire released potentially toxic lead particles into the neighborhood surrounding the cathedral, prompting a lengthy cleanup effort. The spire is slated to be completed by the end of 2023, according to the Agence France-Presse.

While creating the parfumerie, I was trying out different ideas for the display window, one of which was this one.
Everything works great so far. Shifts nicely front and rear, and the front brake feels good. Plan to get rear brake hooked up tonight, and will tackle racks and fenders tomorrow.
I have reached round ten and decided to do all the rounds in light grey. Had a helper when laying them out!
Taking down some Drywall revealed this amazing "Ghost Sign".
The Landlord may develop the space into a restaurant (hopefully Thai!) - and hopefully leave this bit of History visible to all the patrons.
Wheels on for good now. Radiator and crank are all that's left. 1/16th scale Danbury Mint die-cast makeover.
Finally after months I got some work done! Even though I hurt like hell and am having a really rough time lately (meds have been brutal etc. etc.) I can't tell you how incredibly good it felt to work on a Kenner! I needed it. This sweet girlie just needs a new lower half and her hairs finished. So close! :)

I think I need a Brazilian butt augmentation or something. And back fat removal! And a tummy tuck, boob job, arm lift and chin lift if you're taking orders... ;-)
Making more progress on the bike. I finally got around to harvesting the CL pipes off of the parts bike and fitting the short mufflers to them. I think it looks good.

Two London Midland class 350 'Desiro' units go about their business as construction work on the 'new' Northampton Castle station continues.
This view wasn't possible until a few weeks ago, when the old concrete footbridge was removed. I suspect that it will go again once the new one is in place.
