I'll be there for the weekend along with several loonies members of the IPMS 'Beyond the Box' special interest group. I'm taking Fatty's Bedfords plus a few of my own bits and pieces and several WIP's ... just in case I get bored. If you're up that way and fancy dropping in to say hello, please do.

Right then, I'm about to start loading the car for Scotland. Not sure yet if I'm taking the laptop, depends on where (if) I can wedge it in between some of the models. I'll do a hunt at the show for truck models and maybe get a few piccies? ... Play nice while I'm gone.

As you come through the door we're straight ahead of you. Spike's cars and motorcycles on the table in front of you and as you walk around the table, Paul Findon's Emhar Bedford conversions and the 'Wallace & Gromit' stuff then my conversion of Steve's Leyland Beaver as a WIP! Look forward to meeting you.
