    Newbie to the Forum

    Hi Everyone, Ex serviceman new to this hobby, apart from making some Airfix kits 50 odd years ago. I can see straight away there are some very talented modellers here...hopefully I can pick up a few tips along the way, and maybe raise a laugh with my pathetic efforts. John

    Nothing wrong with being an ex-serviceman....unless you're a pongo or aye aye sailor
