Am I envious of you all, nah, course not! What did I get - nothing, nada, zip, zilch. Had to order something for myself, which won’t arrive until 2023!

Crikey H, you've acquired a small model shop there! And Paddy and Stuart, those are two good looking kits!
Best wishes

My modest Xmas haul - I actually bought the Beaufort at Telford but had to put it away for Santa to re-gift it to me :roll:
The Boomerang is for a repeat of my previous wall art project as I really enjoyed painting a copy of the Roy Cross original box art as the background.

No modelling related items this year - my family wouldn't know what to get me anyways! - but Danielle did get me this:

An incredible book packed with remastered images from the Apollo space programme. Over 400 pages and it's coffee table-sized, so the photos are huge! The pictures have been re-scanned from the original film and cleaned up to 'modern' specs, so the quality is astounding. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, as we were in California for the holidays, but my first glance last night was absorbing.

I’ve the same book Paul. For something about space it’s a mighty heavy tome.

I bet if you dropped it on your foot, they definitely could hear you scream in space, and everywhere else as well! :shock:
