Magic roundabouts...Milton Keynes May 25th 2024

ModelKraft has moved to a new venue - still a school campus but lighter and airier than the previous and certainly easier to park. Catering was very good too, but due to the decision to get as many clubs and traders in as possible we were allocated only one six-foot table.
Consequently only David and I attended (albeit Terry came along - on a motorbike no less- to offer support) An appeal to the umpires on arrival saw us take up a cancellation which gave two tables and was actually in a better location.
Fortuitously as it turned out, David had brought his space ships and the OR155 prototypes. I showed a Luftwaffe collection, some miscellaneous fighters and some subs.
We had a very busy day with lots of interest and favourable comment - the missionary work continues!
