Nice Pictures Scott.

you are being very modest about your placing. Come on own up. What did you win and with what did you win it? And congrats by the way.

Don't worry Ian. I have come to know Scott pretty well and he comes across as a very modest, unassuming type of bloke.

Coupled with his modesty, he is also very honest....

When he returned to my side after picking up his 'Gongs' at Cosford, I made him promise he would post something about his well deserved awards. he was a bit reluctant but promised he would.

So come on Scott, don't let me down!!!

This might be a little off topic but do any of you guys from Merseyside know of a good model shop on the Wirral. I was at Liscard this week and the 'good' model shop that I knew there seems to have just gone.

cheers, Ivor

Hi Andrew, no I was over that way cos used to live at New Brighton so knew the shop at Liscard and still do odd jobs on the Wirral (plus my wife works on Wirral and most of family is there - which is why I was interested). Is that one near Charing Cross junction. If it is I seem to remember visiting that one many years ago, they had lots of Tamiya stuff. Will now make a point (excuse!) of re-visiting that one. My local model shop is at Rhuddlan (Rhuddlan Models) and he's well stocked, but only a tiny shop and he does mainly railway modelling. There's also another one just outside Rhuddlan but he does mainly RC cars and all the bits for them. But not bad for this area - they seem to be big on railway modelling in N Wales, planes are of less interest.
 
Ivor, there is a good model shop on the lower road at Greenfield, opposite the turning for Holywell.....At least there was last time I went past!

Cheers,

Ron

Hi ivor i will swear by the kit stop Colin and Jen are fantastic and usually if they don't have it then they can get it. i have just ordered the trumpeter 1/32 a10 thunderbolt. can't wait to get it.
