BC Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 (edited) Well done Mike..I'll give mr softie your half dozen rowies to take home and put in his freezer until the next Spalding when he can take them down to you ;D ... I do like chocolate cake but I don't recall telling Brian to bid until you buy....anyway looks a good show and I have spotted a few "kint" aka known faces. I don't want to single out any picture but the ones which really caught my eye...in no order of preference...... were that amazing collection of Fords...(who owns them ) and those Meccano models looked great..... again I don't know who was showing them...and last but not least was Andy Sewell there with some of his amazing builds ..last time I saw his models must have been at the museum at Kittochside near East Kilbride many years ago.

robbo Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I'm not good with names of the various exhibitors but there was a really good variety and everyone put on a special effort for the show. Unfortunately the appalling weather kept the numbers down but they did manage to raise £1825 which was split evenly between the two chosen charities, Clic Sergeant cancer research and the North West Air Ambulance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
