Didn't think I'd be allowed, but it appears I am! Anyone planning on attending?  It sounds like the SIGs official presence may be at Farnborough though...

Yes, Nev, I'm there with Mercia and Quarter Scale Group, but I'm taking some stuff along for Britmodeller too.
I'll sort out that Imperial Roman stuff for you.

SIG's official presence actually appears to be on a bender in Prague (well attending E-Day in between the drinking ). MartinH, Narses, Aircav and Geoff_P are attending E-Day as punters.

I should be at Sutton Coalfield with Bolton IPMS.

You bring it along, and I'll photograph them and post it on here for you.

BM have got a stand there, so looks like I'll be there :)

Martin and the rest of the Prague crowd - be sure to pester Eduard about that 1/48 Phantom ;)

Okay Martin, you've obviously led a very innocent life. If you take them hostage, then you MAKE money!

Geoff, Lee, Terry, Chris, please don't let him wander the show alone, he might get picked up by a stranger offering him candy.  ;D ;D ;D
