CBK at Halifax (nee Huddersfield) 2019 "Your Best Five CBKs"

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.

Easily said James but I just do not know the area and literally did not know which way to turn in order to get to these places "within 5mins walk of the Leisure Centre" and so being stuck in a loop of roundabouts and traffic lights my only option was Sainsburys- BRING BACK HUDDERSFIELD !!

Sadly, no venue will please everyone. But you all seem to have managed to achieve the main goal of an event like this, and had a memorable day out and catch up in the venue.

Found some footage from a gut with a GoPro whom we saw videoing all the displays.

I've posted the link I've started it at our table.

A video from the Airfix representative, whom we did chat to. You can see us seeing up in "fast-forward" mode to the right of the screen.
