CBK SIG Model Shows 2013

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.

CBK has two tables confirmed. We are down the left from the the public entrance opposite KitsKits. This is the same position as last year.

That's generous Ollie but the table is already packed with the Box Art II display including your own MB Furies.

Cosford 7th April.

We have 4 tables in Hangar 2 (my favourite of the lot - very good light, and this year we are just inside the door so it should be even brighter!), see below.

I will be taking the display and James is going to try and make it down. Bromo, your help for as long as you can give it would be much appreciated as will anyone elses.
I also think it is a great bonus that we are opposite the Airfix Tribute Forum Tables - a common theme maintained as people enter the hangar, and of course we will be stood looking broadside upon the magnificent TSR.2
Possibly the best show of the year IMHO - do try top join us.

08:00-10:00 Setting Up
10:00 Museum open to the public - free admission but nominal car park Pay and Display - about £3 or £4 I think. No free parking for exhibitors
either this year so I'll have to pay it as well!
16:00 Show Closes
18:00 Museum Closes

Cheers

Unfortunately I'm going to have to bail out again :cry: finances are just too tight to justify 300 miles worth of petrol at the moment, have a great show guys I really wish I could be there with you.

All models are equal. Some models are more equal than others.
