 A Stitch in Time saves nine !

Repair that one loose stitch when  it happens, you will save nine stitches when it starts  to fall apart.

The same could be said this evening when i noticed the deteriorating paint work at the southern end of Collet museum coach at Toddington.

We had some epic paint peel, so a quick sand with 180 grit and a new coat of Yacht varnish that will stabilise   the surface for another couple of years, if it had been left any longer  a total new repaint would have been necessary, it took just 40 minutes
