      The big ones with petrol and food are Services, lay-by are the smaller run off areas - just a strip of tarmac at side of the roadway

                  Another reminder as per Tony's post yesterday

                  This build is about making a kit that costs just £5 or less. So please, no after market stuff, just build what is in the box.

                  This is what the Cosford 'Fun Build' has always been about since it's conception. Making the best we can out of the contents in front of us.

                  Thanks.
                  Ron

                          A lay-by is just a place at the side of the road. The petrol and food stops are generally called just services. Or rest stops.

                            1AM Sunday morning is still Saturday night as far as I'm concerned so that's too early! It won't be until at least 3AM!

                            Alas, PJ won't be able to join as early. His kit is at my house so he'll have to wait until the Covid quarantine is over.

                              I got a 1/100 Su152 gun from Zvezda. I assume it'll be OK to add just a couple of decals as there are non supplied with the kit?

                                Dave, I'm sure a couple of Tunnocks in the right direction can seal the go ahead!
