I should be there, one of the best shows in the year to my mind.
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! :)

Fraid I wont be able to attend, Mrs SP has a craft fair booked so im driving on that day.
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

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Does that mean that modelling is intrinsically bad then?  :o

Remember that at this show the tables are usually smaller than the norm. So surface area of the stand is going to be at a premium. 

Depending on numbers attending we may have to limit the number of models per member..................

Coventry, I may have a problem..................

My car's in the garage the day before the Cov show, and you know what garages are like...... :(

So I'm not as certain as I was about being there, and as I'll be starting 120 miles from home, my #2 car won't be an option for the day.

Stop wishing the year away, next you'll be saying Telford's not long off and we start bricking it remembering we need to do our special builds for it.  :unsure:
