Had a nice couple of hours at the show. Didn't buy any trucks - Alan beat me to them! Wolfie was there with the SIG display plus some of Alan and david Casses trucks too I believe. Nick was on the beyond the box table - missed Paul unfortunately. After a couple of rounds it was just too crowded - really difficult to get around and there were 6 or 7 truck modellers blocking the front of the table so my apologies to all for not saying goodbye, I found myself by the door and used it :cheesy:

























and the one entry in the competition

I was just looking at the Unimog under a table and thought of you- if you hadn't wanted it I'm sure it would have found a home!!!!
