Many thanks Chris, The two that I just added for bulk were the ones to get the golds, the two I was expecting to get golds failed with one (Doher) getting the silver and the bridglayer not a whisper.... Should have put more in the envelope than a Sainsburys petrol Nectar points voucher :tears-of-joy:

Thanks for sharing your photos,it looks like it was a great show and well done on the awards. Very well deserved. very surprised that the bridge layer didn't place.
Congratulation Mike. Well deserved.
If you hadn't been so tight with the bribes your medal haul would have been even greater.

The collator of the results who knows me and the concensious of opinion in the club was - I woz robbed - but we shall see next year....

Yeah! but I got my own back, have you ever seen a fat old lardy trying to pump up his flat car tyres with a foot pump with a leak..... Pump! fart! gasp! pump!.....
Well Much Olderthanme, ya can't win 'em all...That is a nice haul of metals and you should be happy with them. I was going to write you about the bribes, but I figured you knew that the Green Stamps you put in the envelopes went away over 25 years ago and are worthless in this day and age. Judges today only have one thing on their minds...'Show Me The Money', if you wanna win...
The real shame is the bridge layer didn't even get a mention, especially after all the hard blood, sweat, tears, and work you put into it, Mike. There is always next year and I'm pretty sure you'll do a clean sweep in the comps. Forget the cash and bring the .45 Mag with you to the comps. Definitely an attention getter and when the judges close the doors to judge, ask them that one question...'Do You Feel Lucky Punk......Do Ya???'!!!
A big thanks to you and Pete for the great pics. There were some fine builds all a round...

They're not real Dave and I agree they should be, too! I'll let you in a little secret here. Mike collects the show medals he wins so he can melt them down to make new PE parts for his next build.......
But you didn't hear that from me..............Okay...

Hello Youngerthanme,
Agreed you cannot win them all, and as I am such a PITA I have a good mind to enter it next year, I think the rules say that only the winners cannot re-enter.... But by then a kit will be out and there will be bridgelayers all over the place - just look at the Churchill SBG, you were falling over the bloody things....
Green stamps went out 25 years ago - WHAT!!!! I've got suitcases full of them in the attic providing suitable bedding for the mice, I know they are mice and not the dog scratching its fleas 'cos I drop a leg out of the bed and give it a poke with the big toe nail....
No problem with the pics it was a pleasure to provide them and Pete actually filled in slots that I missed...

As I am now talking to you from The Taj Mahal Hotel, no not the one in India, but the one in down and out Brixton, I will let you work it out....:smiling6:
