Andy Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Just setting off to finish setting up. We have a rather different take on our diorama this time, and should generate a few laughs, and best of all money to charity (cancer research) at the end!

Deere-est Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 That sounds ominous, Andy. I hope the laugh is at Marks expense! We are on the A303 as we speak! See you all there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 .. and I will be on the road within the hour Tris - you could have called into my place and we could have gone in convoy! (and you could have had a cuppa) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tractor Twitcher Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Really looking forward to the trip down and scenic drive across the Humber Bridge aswell adding a few more to models to my collection, taking a few photographs and catching up with fellow F.T.F members. Parents are busy house hunting in Sheffield this weekend so i'm having a day to myself after failing miserably to convince my new room mate she'd have a great time at Spalding. Perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned the words "bags" and "carry." Look forward to to catching up with everyone tommorow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
