… that I must report the passing of my flux brush.
As a humble No2 natural hair brush, Perkins came into my workshop as a means of applying solvent adhesives. Eventually, he was promoted to the more challenging task of applying liquid fluxes. In that role he served admirably for almost a decade.
Affectionately known as "The Grog Brush", Perkins continued sterling service, despite corrosion of the ferrule until around 1130hrs GMT today. Sadly, with most of his hairs long gone, the task of spreading Carr's Red Label proved too much for him, and he passed to the Great Wastebasket.
His successor, Humbrol "Palpo" No2, is currently handling duties. Let's hope he has the staying power of Old Grog.
A private service and funeral will be held later. No flowers, by request.
