Lancing, UK Model Show
Another good event for ship modellers is the Lancing Model Show. There is a strong bias towards aircraft, and armour models with ships as an afterthought but Rob Kernaghan, Jim Smith, and myself gave a very good showing on behalf of us ship fans, and were there to give strong support to our chosen hobby. The pictures shown illustrate this and include our tables in a very central and well lit poistion. In detail there are Jim's Marus, Rob's Gneisenau as planned, and his paddle steamer Gracie Fields. I brought along two new builds, Ft, Drum, and HMS Tiger - Dogger Bank version. The Aviation Bookstore run by Wendy Nyers, and on line, was the focus for our pocket money, and I provided the team with gammon ciabatta cheese rolls, and Rioja. It's only a small venue, but admission is free so we hope to see you
there next year to chat about ships and ship modelling.
