Thank you for the tickets Martin. They will not be wasted.

Two pieces of cake please Debbie, I'm bringing someone who doesn't have a 'Mustang' American car any more.

Now you all know what I look like, please stop me and say Hello.

Cheers

Titanic Ken.

(next ship on it's way)

Taste buds in training ready for cake samples

Space on my stand chaps if you need to leave your cake and go off shopping

Hi Phil,

Did you you get my email the other day. I am very keen to know what you have regarding the Titanic.

I shall see you at Warwick as I'm coming up with Mark & Co. Is there anything I can buy from you ? It could increase your stock of Twenty pound notes.

Cheers

Ken

The Anglian club are doing a Victorian sailing display (each day I think) and I'm planning to show the tiny (1/96) Turbinia if anyone's interested.... (And if it's not too rough)

Whole tray of bread pudding for me please Debs

Might have to leave all the boats under the stand to get all the cake on the top.

I'll be setting up from about midday tomorrow (Thurs), so happy to do a little tasting for the chaps

Well we had a good few hours this afternoon building the Lifeboat Enthusiasts' Society stand. It all came together nicely in the end just a few more boats to add in the morning.

If your there please come and say hello you can't miss us we have a big RNLI flag flying over the stand.

Will try and get to the meet up at phil's stand at 12 but we are doing a display on the water at 11:20 so might still be putting stuff back on the stand and answering questions after.

Regards

John

""The James Braidwood", what type of vessel? What club or stand?

HS93 (RIP) · « **Reply #71 on:** November 13, 2010, 03:06:22 am »

Looks great, did you say you have been eating the same Pie for 9 years ??? it must have been some pie as I have seen you with the nose bag on.. %

It looks great martin I look forward to see the rest of your great pictures, for me its better than being there, as you get them at a nice hight that i can see the detail, i wish more people would leave the superstructure of there boats so you can see the insides of them.

Peter

Keep up the good work Martin

First time to this show and was going with pockets bulging and a list I also took a friend that wanted to buy a ready built power boat to my amazement we got round the show in an hour and came out with nothing and a wasted trip I'll not bother again

It's OK if your into tugs, work boats or lifeboats which were plenty but no power boats or sailing stuff that I could see. I wanted to purchase a Robbe Atlantis or Valvidia but nothing at all I also wanted to buy a Models by Design CYGNUS SF 33 12th scale he had only took one and that got sold on Friday maybe I should of asked them to save one for me but there at a show to sell boats and they take one!

My friend also came home empty handed with no power boats for sale and for that matter none on any stands, where was OMRA don't they need new members obviously not.

anyway rant over will not bother again.

Only so much room in the van I guess, I'm sure if you'd spoken to Andy of MBD earlier this week he'd have brought one along for you and kept it on one side. They're very helpful and always try thier best. I went Friday, very busy, couple of the usual traders not there though, didn't buy much myself except some large styrene sheets and a Mayhem cap for myself and DoubleDiamond off SteamboatPhil, Dave.

Colin Bishop · « **Reply #74 on:** November 13, 2010, 07:26:08 pm »

A good show and I met a lot of people. There did seem to be some traders missing however and those I spoke to all commented on the high cost of attending. I do hope this show isn't going to price itself out of the market. Traders will only come if they can make a return and at least cover their costs.

Particularly liked the French battleship Jean Bart although there was some superb work on display.
