There are some real crackers here, I wonder if John could organise these into some kind of vote...then we can all vote on the most used or our favourites!

Only jsut got back in to modeling, and it's the same as when I was racing, she doesn't like going near the model shop cos' I'll be gone for hours. But now that I'm still only on my first (due to work, college and now man flu) and I'm getting the old comments and a few new ones.

"Erm, you have all these plans, where are you going to put them?"
"You havn't finished that bloody tank yet, you'r not buying another one"

And one this morning
Her: "You have a cold"
You: "It's man flu"
Her "Man flu then, but just cos' your off work sick doesn't mean you can play with an air brush. Now get back in bed"

But she is going to work soon and im already looking for newspaper to put down.

Three simple rules for a happy modelling life...

1) Don't get married but live with someone.
2) Find your partner at a local model club. I did and never looked back.
3) isn't so much a rule but a fact...you are never stuck for a present if you both model

“You’re not the tooth faerie are you?”
“No, she’s real. Don’t be a plank!”

Here's another couple:

1) So what does that bit do?

2) Sorry I think I just broke it.

3) Your models look a lot better now that I've dusted them.

4) What's the point of a submarine when you can't see it underwater?

and of course standard answer:

"No love, I'm not on my second childhood, I haven't finished with my first one yet!"

1) Haven't you got enough tools already?

2) Mainly aimed at model boat modellers, and sure to be words that would bring a chill to the heart:
"I hoovered your model **insert name of boat here** today, but I think it's ok"

3) The alltime classic:
"Where are you going to put that one?"

4) Upon another order from Hannants / Ebay / Expensive model supplies.com:
"It's like Christmas everyday here!"

5) Upon completing a 1/48th scale Ju87:
"Haven't you already got a spitfire one?"

6) After you've run around the house shouting after gluing your bristol bulldog to the desk or smearing glue on your fairey firefly canopy...:
"I'm sure It'll look lovely when it's finished!"

But what happens if you're into Railway Modelling and wanting to meet an attractive female? Typical Railway modeller is 60 plus, pipe smoking, with a questionable fondship for knitwear...
