Train all sorted

The club stand is organised, although it's likely just my stuff on display unless Willie can be twisted to bring a box of his Luftwaffe 46 creations.

Show is all set - the tables were a right nightmare for various reasons, not least a bunch of the club members not actually following the plan with the last island, resulting in having to move three whole sodding islands and all the chairs which some retard put out despite being told in no uncertain terms by me to leave them WTF they were until we were sorted with the tables.  I am *very* bitter about this, because it happens every year and just means more work moving stuff about.  It will not be happening again and some very choice words are going to be likely shouted by me when the post mortem is held at the club in a week or so.

Anyhoo, my contribution is shown in the attached photos, a mixture of real stuff (my Highball Mosquitoes), which covers Project Cancelled, some older whifs that rarely get an airing and are definitely getting retired, and some works in progress.  There's some Luftwaffe 46 stuff coming tomorrow from Willie.

Cool! 

A lot of green & grey, though. A few North African/Mediterranean schemes would have brightened things up a bit.

Blimey Lee, you won't know what to do with all those spare hours once your part built fleet is finished!

[Glenn Gilbertson]

Great - thanks for sharing the pics.

Erm, the Blenhein coded F is in a Mediterranean scheme...

Look, I just pulled out a couple of boxes that included the Hornets that I did want.  The mood I was in last week, you're lucky there was a display at all.
