Hi Zak,
Thanks for posting the pictures.
It was a very good day to meet the public, who were more willing to chat than modellers at shows strangely enough???
However, being open to the general public also allowed the Touchy feely, prop spinner fraternity to come in contact with some of our models.
Overall a good day, if not a bit long and at sometimes hot.
But would like to be part of again.
If Pen-Pusher reads this thanks for the pictures, but I was unable to attach them to this post....??
Cheers,
Bigkev

It was good to get over and see you all even though it was for only a short time. Did the Lancaster do a flypast?

It was a good day out, the full scale Lancaster did a no show ☹️, but Neil’s one maybe should have done it for the public 😉.

We did offer to throw Neil's model off the tent roof but he was not keen on this.

He would have even less keen if we had tried to throw 'him' off the tent roof, but it might have got more votes.....

Hi All,
Just a few pictures taken by me on the day. A good day was had, and very nice to talk to the local, and not so local people.
