Model Shops
« on: August 15, 2023, 03:58:37 PM »
Hi all, I discovered this model shop in Wigton, Cumbria.
Really nice and quite a lot of stuff.
As usual, it was down a little side street.

An intersting website, pity 90% of the 1/72 kits are out of stock!!! As I was in Scarborough today I checked on the web to see if P&S Hobbies were open only to find that in red capitals it read 'Temporarily Closed' so things aren't looking good there!!!

Last time I was there, there was a note on the door about an illness/accident.
The York shop was open, but reduced hours.

Yes it said that his wife had a serious illness and he was closing early - so we have to just work round that - family and health are even more important that plastic and glue
