What 'delightful assets' would they be then?  ;)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Just a heads up that we have an amber warning for Snow starting tonight and stretching till Saturday, it looks like it will be weather should be OK for Sunday but we won't know what effect the snow will have on the show as yet. Could be rain and sleet so no long term effects could be heavy snow rendering the school closed.

Hopefully it will be light and soon thaw and thus having no effect on the show, but will let you know in case the situation changes as a result of the weather and effects the show.  :banghead:

Cheers

Right Its been snowing here in Northampton since 9 this morning and im currently stuck at work, as the roads out of the indusrial estate i work on are currently gridlocked thanks to the white stuff.

Ive called it off as far as me trying to get to the show. If the show doesnt get cancelled, there is nothing stopping the local lads putting on a sig display, You will have to cobble togeather a small sign and dont touch tags thou.

If it does go ahead. have fun.
I always hope for the best.

I'm currently in work at Macclesfield: there's about an inch on the ground here and all the roads are clear. Having said that, Bolton's just that bit higher, but then, the damn stuff is coming in from the south west so.... :unsure:

I think I can knock up a sign IF someone can send me the What If logo as a big enough file to stand being printed out at A4 size: nicking the one off the top of the page doesn't work.... (it's only 400 x 100 pixels).

Can't help re cloths though.

EDIT:  Just realised I've got last year's desk calendar here: it's a CD box style thing that stands up at an angle and holds cards. Perfect for a sheet of card/plastic with the logo on it......

IF !!

Could be a long way home if the roads still gridlocked.

As to Bolton well we had about an inch too, its only really been light snow as it appears to have hit further south than was once thought.

AFAIK the Show is still on and the weather should be fine here for the next couple of days.
