Re: Sword & Lance 2017
Great, Hope to see you there. I'm on the Bring and Buy stall, just inside the doors.
There are some great bargains to be had. Last year I got a Tamiya 1/32nd Spitfire IXe for £50. There were loads of unbuilt kits with extra parts, for less than the kit. 1/32 HobbyBoss Spitfire Vb for £25. A Trumpeter Skyhawk in the same scale, with so many packs of extras included that the lit bulged. £45.

Re: Sword & Lance 2017 One day to go!!!!!
Sorry I couldn't make it Chuck. My youngest went and broke his wrist on Friday afternoon so I have spent the weekend on nursing duties.

Agree with James; great photos of some fantastic models. The bust of Monty was the showstopper for me!
Best wishes
