<{POST_SNAPBACK}>On another note. Chris24 was there with his Dad and thier layout's first exhibition outing. A very nice layout. Only one critisism Chris, with the pelmet so low tall people like myself had trouble seeing it without stooping/bending! Perfect height for kids though! Excellent use of teddy bear fur for grass, Just how many gave thier lives?
Not a bad show really. A nice friendly local one with a good selection of layouts and trade support.....The lady selling raffle tickets got a bit tiresome after asking me 5 times if I wanted any! Can't fault her for trying!
I managed to get through the day without the "ejector rocket pack" being let off, not for want of trying though eh BritHO
I liked the use of the teddy bear fur for grasss - now, let me see - Maggie has plenty of Beenies........

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>nope the van hasnt got 2 tiny screws, the skaleautos caravan i bought on another stall
had that and came off without a hitch. this has a weird lump of metal that turns, but no matter how much you turn it, it makes no difference!! :'( and iv wanted one of these fer ages, wouldnt have if id known it would be so annoying!
Chris24's layout was good, i remember it, but even i had trouble seeing the layout properly, and im 5" 10'/11' the frame for the front of the layout needs to be extended upwards, or you could just take the top part off no?
even i have to say the lady selling raffle tickets got a tad irritating after a while, she was all i could hear whilst walking around looking at the layouts!!
You have to be "easing" the GM vehicles away from the base as you are undoing the weird metal bit !
