I always hope for the best.

experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Just because he's OGL doesn't mean he deserves any favours!  Friday morning please, Martin.

2 x 1/72nd Aifix Bf-110E/E-2 Trop....radials?


Built the RS Models Me 109X radial engined job in Japanese markings. Looks quite nice
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Tamiya 1/24 Ford Zakspeed Capri Gr5 model kit, no box
1/72 Airfix WWII German Coastal Defence Fort, still in it's shrink wrap. Never opened.
I'll build the road car version of the Capri, using the set of headlamps from the built Yakspeed. (I've found a set of quad lights for my Motorcross conversion).
The Costal Fort will be used on my 'Inch McColm' build. Just need to get some chicken wire and cork for the rockface.

Not a kit, a piece of kit.  Picked up a magnifying lamp from Hobbycraft on offer for twenty quid.  Saw them last month in a pile of stacked boxes.  Didn't have the cash then, so went in after payday, fortunately they still had a fair few left although the pile was much smaller.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Good deal Mossie, worth their weight in gold.  :thumbsup:

I got mine for free when a department closed down at work but I'd have gladly paid serious money for it had I realised how useful it would turn out to be.
