[Eric Mc]

If anyone is interested the Farnborough IPMS model show is on this Saturday. I'll be there and there will be lots of model displays and traders.

I'll be there more or less all day as I will be helping set-up in the morning as well as helping out in various other areas. We get the school halls ready on Friday evening.

Would one be able to purchase built models? or is it mostly model kits that you have to build yourself?

The show is aimed at model builders so the traders who turn up will be generally selling model kits and/or kit and model building accessories. There will be plenty of finished kits on display on the various club stands - although it is unlikely that any will be for sale (although you never know).

Come along anyway. You might be inspired to have a go at building some kits yourself. I'll be on duty at the show so if you want a chat about model building, make yourself known to me.

Glad you enjoyed it. You should have just butted in and introduced yourself.

I came away with a 1/72 Space Shuttle - so I'm happy.

Not from me. I didn't take my camera.

Just a note to let people know that the 2016 Modelfest is on tomorrow. Same venue as usual.

If anybody is in the Farnborough/Fleet/Camberley area tomorrow, please drop by.

The halls are fully booked with traders and model clubs so it should be very busy with lots of models on show and lots to spend your money on.

All proceeds go to a local hospice so it's all in a good cause.
