    Abergavenny steam and vintage show.
    Great day at the Abergavenny steam and vintage show today. I took about 20 of my boats, along with 250 model
    lorries
    from my wife's collection. While there I managed to help a few new modellers get started and hopefully they will join us on this wonderful site. I always point interested people in this direction. Back there again tomorrow, 5am wake up to be on the road hopefully by 6am. Start setting up the display at 7am. Cheers and goodnight all Colin.

    Really great collection of boats and
    lorries
    between you - wish I still had the first boat I built (own design yacht) but its probably still rotting away at the bottom of the Leopard Rock swimming pool in whats now Zimbabwe. Did you build entirely on your own or did you get some help? Gave up on my patrol boat aged about 10 as I could not get the skins to fit - not knowing the trick of wetting the ply first. Built a hobbies Anglian instead - sadly also long gone - lost in a move. As an aside George Turner told me he designed a lot of models for LLedo and Corgi so I suspect there's a few among your wife's collection. Pity he did not continue with his boat kits - they were a real treat - but he said he got bored !
