Decided to start on the service station. Very fiddly this one or perhaps it was the lateness of the hour.

| Even the petrol pumps have hoses |

| Love the details on this including the stairs |

| The person is the correct scale but the car is not - just playing at this stage |

| The workshop with all it's signs! |
There is a beautiful piece in the instructions saying:
"The service station is made up of two buildings. The front single storey section is a white rendered building containing the showroom and shop with one service bay. The rear workshop building is red brick and may have been used for something else before the garage was built on to the front. The garage probably dates fom the second world war, but survives to this day after many superficial make-overs."
It's only made of cardboard but it has history. It's only when I take a few shots like this that I can see where I can errors in construction and things I need to tidy up before any official photo shoot.
