The chemist's boy is dead and gone,
His face we'll see no more,
For what he thought was H2O,

I've done a bit more work on the Morris and a little bit of testing
too.
The bodywork was tested a few weeks ago by having Phil Palmer's Hetzer
fire a round into it at a range of a little under 1.
The results were a little disappointing. Although the foamcore /
