Hmmm, I may be able to be there, but won't have too many models with me as it's the day before my holiday starts, and I'll already be en route there.
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! :)

Interesting. Were not showing on the club list but we are showing on their floor plan.
Ive emailed the organisers to find out what the score is.

I always hope for the best.

experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Very unlikely to be going this year. Clashing events see.

I have booked a trade table, looking forward to my first (and maybe only, depending on Telford going ahead?) show outing for 2021.

Change of plans, no longer trading, but hoping to go to the show for a few hours as a punter. No shows for me as a trader this year.

And it did. My only purchase apart from some food from the bar was a couple of bottles from the micro sol / set range.

Not a massive turn out of sig members, with only me, Nick P and Rich B displaying. But we were re enforced by the presance of the venrable Mike McEvoy for most of the day and Colin S (Freightdog) getting used to being a paying punter for once, rather than trading.

heres a Link to the photos I took. Give me a shout if it doesnt work..........

Looked like a veritable Saunders-Roe and Harrier fest on the SIG table!  :thumbsup:

A pity I couldn't make it, looked a VERY good show.

It was a good show with better attendance than I'd expected. Not so many visitors but lots of buzz behind the tables as people meet up for the first time in over a year.

I won a ship in the raffle. It has no wheels which is right for HMS Liverpool  :wacko: 
This 1/700 Dragon kit includes a Lynx helicopter that is smaller than my thumbnail.
