On the meeting before Christmas day the lads at the Kirklees club have a bit of an event and make something of the occassion.
Some put on the obligatory daft hats, including myself, some as you can see from the pictures don't actually need to!!
Today it was freezing and the fog came down and swirled around us. The atmosphere was the best though and a number of the members turned up just for the chat and the friendly conversation. We all brought something to nibble such as pork pies, sausage rolls, mince pies etc, had a cup of coffee and generally had a wonderful morning. The bigger boats broke up the remains of the ice to allow the smaller boats a bit more room and we all enjoyed some superb views as the sun shone through the morning fog across the water. It alsio gave me the chance to get some nice atmospheric shots of the models against the fog which I really like.
I took a few pictures of the event to share here just to remind ourselves of one of the best aspects of our hobby, the friendship.
I've also put some of the models in the "Kirklees Hall of Fame" thread.
