        Sorry to hear that John you will be missed.


        But most of all I hope that it's nothing serious that's making you leave. All the best.

            John! What on earth... Ok firstly I hope it's not something serious.


            You above everyone else have helped me the most in finding my new found love for aircraft modelling and have really trained my eye on the Luftwaffe medium which I will continue on.


            I can't tell you enough how you have helped me on my builds along with everyone's support especially when I lost my dad a couple of weeks ago I knew I could escape onto the forum to take my mind off things.


            Listen you have to do what you have to do, but I for one will miss your help and support.


            Kind regards


            Phil

              Whatever your plans, I wish you well for the future.


              All the best,

              Yes. Some things do have to be sacrificed for other more things with greater priority. Hopefully, I will be coming back to the hobby, but it will not be for decades now- this is very much an important decision.

                Yep- check your pms. sorry to hear about your old man mate- that's always a hard blow.


                Hopefully, I will drop in here now and then, and see how all of you are doing, but for now, I have to give it up.

                      Best of luck in what you have in mind.


                      Hope you are not starting a wild life park for Kangaroos.

                        However, I will be keeping 5 and building them before I finally give up the hobby, so hopefully, these last few builds will be posted here as well

                            Bit longer than 10 years- maybe 20-30 years. And yes, this is quite important for me to give up my hobby.
