AKA The Cosford show

April 7th 2013. RAF Museum Cosford.

The SIG has space booked. This year we are beside the port wing of the Bristol 188. (the spot normaly occupied by IPMS Coventry & Wawickshire)

set up is from 8am to 10am. And the museum opens to the public at 10am.

Before any one PM's me begging for a free parking pass......Dont bother, there arnt any this year. Make sure you have plenty of change for the ticket machine.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

is there a cunning plan this year OGL or just turn up with the weird stuff?,  ( looks up at model shelf,  sees tonka thats not visited yet etc)
the things you learn, give your mind the wings to fly, and the chains to hold yourself steady
take off and nuke the site form orbit, nope, time for the real thing, CAM and gridfire, call special circumstances. 
wow, its like freefalling into the Geofront

Some of them may be let out of the darkened room in time for this years event...... ;D

Count me in, one of my fave events during the year.

Sadly not this year Martin, nor Milton Keynes.  First chance to darken the SIG display will be Hendon.

Right hotel is booked for the Saturday night so me and Aircav will be there  :thumbsup:

Unfortunately MK is out - 70th birthday party (not mine !) and although I'm up North for the Tyneside show I'm at a Christening. Hoping to get along to the show for a couple of hours in the morning. Currently Hendon is ok ??

I'm pleased to say the SIG 'Mascot', in the shape of Mrs_PR19, will be at Cosford as well, complete with knitting (or a jigsaw....) I expect.  ;D
