Shropshire (Cosford) 2015 show

What makes a British kit a Classic? What Classic kit is really British? What is the SIG all about and what goes on...from initial musings, to full on campaigning. It'll all be here, interspersed with talk of Texan Bars, Alias Smith & Jones and The Flashing Blade, Footy Cards and Bath Night, before School.

OK team, we now have details of our location for this show, which takes place on 12th April.

Cold War Hangar (Hangar 1) which is on the lower level and we are under the rear starboard wing of the Avro York. Sounds good to me. Doors open at 10am, entrance to the museum is free although there is a "small" charge for car parking - how much is not specified but I don't think they'll rob us all. I'm looking forward to this one as I haven't been able to attend in previous years.

I look forward to seeing you there.

I'll be there too. I'm bringing some models for the Cold War SIG so pulling a couple of CBKs from the cabinet will be no bother.

Have a good day chaps. It is far too far for me, for a day trip. Did it once, but not again.

So do I Paul, the decision was unexpected and I'll be appealing against it as advised by my counsel. Things don't look too rosy though so I'll be on the hunt for a new job.

That's bad news Tom and I hope you can resolve the situation. Employment is becoming such a bind in this country. These days job security is almost out of the window.
