Delighted to get back to this. First model kit, Matchbox bi-plane from Ringway Airport (dropping someone off) aged about 8, mid 70s. First Tamiya in Blackpool about 79. Just bought that kit again. How can such a love remain dormant for 40 years?

Welcome Dan. I restarted about a year ago and probably my best decision was joining this lot. Friendly, helpful with a small dose of madness. Seems to work well!!! Dive in, look forward to hearing more of your builds.

Welcome Dan! A lot has happened over the last 40 years, you've got a bit of catching up! Any questions? fire away, you'll get an answer or two - and some of them may even be useful!

Ask my missus, she keeps wrapping my sandwiches up in road maps every time I go out - even to the shed....
