Scottish Nationals, Perth 2018

Lists of traders and exhibitors shamelessly stolen off Britmodeller.





Oh dear.  Collectakit.  My wallet is already looking unhappy...

11am friday and i have just arrived at the venue.
For those who were here last year. We are in the same spot again. In the new hall  next to the comp area.

Note on the parking. You now pay for the parking.  Get your ticket at the inbound barrier. Ignore the prices. Park up then get your ticket  stamped/validated at the centre  reception and pay up £1 for all day parking. Not the £10 shown on the signs.

It is now early evening and I am back home from Perth.
I could only manage the Saturday this year, tomorrow (Sunday) being SWMBO's birthday.
The show was as always good as was the company and meeting old friends.
For me unfortunately, my mobility problems were in full swing to-day so I could not get around that well. So no mass buying and no photography.
All I managed to get was a couple of tins of Humbrol enamel.
However OGL and The Wooksta made sure that the traders were not disappointed.
TsrJoe bought what he claimed was a box of old built models for spare parts, but we were not permitted to see the contents.
He did however have the prototype printing of the box for the Scott-Furlong Predator. "Speculative" colour schemes for both RAF and RN being shown.
Gondor was there but due to pressures of work he could not stay long, and he can not make tomorrow either.

'twas a good show indeed and I was very happy to see Jim as it's been a while since our paths crossed.  Some good displays, good traders, space to move - the use of the second hall has really opened it up - and above all it seemed busy, so a good atmosphere.  Possibly the best Scots Nats I've been to in the twenty or so years (on and off) that I've been going.

Purchasewise, there was a fair bit of choice and I could have come away with a lot more than I did, especially Spitfires, but as I'll be seeing at least one of the traders in a few weeks at Wor Club Show, I decided to wait.

Glad you had a good time gents and also glad the show appears to be thriving
