It was great to meet everyone, and a good show to boot. It would be brilliant if you can make an event one day Tim. There's another IPMS event at St Ives on the 26th Sep.

Paul , looks like 2 coffees then :smiling2:
Going to FB Andrew Taylor and see If he is free.

John, I did look on Facebook to add you, but there's no button to add friend on your profile! I assumed you want to keep the rabble away! :tears-of-joy:

If anyone wants to add me feel free. I don't post much modelling stuff as yet, but the show did get a mention along with #tankfest

From left Dale JR Ben (Yambam ) Paul (Scottie ) Jim.


We met up fairly quickly , then had a wander around the show. Many clubs there and quite a few traders.

Starting with some bikes. this first one was a stunning model .





Some cars and trucks on display. Think they must have been 1/10 or 1/12 scale.



Then a large amount of ships, seems they are the in thing , so Dave and Bob ( hope your feeling better. ) should enjoy these.




For Tim. Not many that I could find







Wingies ,

[JR]

A few more.

1/72, Paul and Rick I didn't see any in 1/87 sorry.

Hopefully Dale will post along with Chris. It was great to put a face to a name and to catch up with Paul and Ben. A thoroughly nice day out.

Thoroughly enjoyed it too, and looking forward to seeing you again next week. I'll try to load some pictures later. i may give the Flickr thing a go, as I have forty to add, mostly overall shots of table displays.
On a separate note can I ask for your help to identify this glorious machine please? I'm told it's a Russian tank, so asking the expert
