Model Railway Show 28th August 2010 .

Hi All,
 
Just got back from the Railway Show, Bridlington Railway Station, and would like to share these photo's with you.
A good day was had by all, and a very well attended show by the members. Thanks to all who attended, and who helped put on such a great display.
The Annual Trophy Winner was Paul Lamb, with his WW.II Diorama, with 55 votes, Well Done to Paul!, a recent newcomer to the club.
A further detailed report will follow in the club newsletter, (Andy, please take note, I wrote these words). keep your eyes peeled!
 
Thanks to all who attended and contributed to the day.

Help for Heroes Spitfires

If you frequent the online auction site eBay you may have noticed a few 1/48th scale Airfix Spitfires that are up for auction. These are all kits made by celebrities in aid of Help for Heroes. Each kit is signed by the celebrity.

So if you fancy helping the charity go and have a look on eBay. I think the auctions end in about 2 days.

Well done Ripmax

Just wanted to share a good news story with all of you.

In a recent spraying session I managed to break the trigger of my Aztec A470 airbrush, agghhh! I remembered that the airbrush had a lifetime guarantee for the body but I didn't have any paperwork so i wasn't sure where to send it.

I had a lot of helpful suggestions at one of the club meetings and so I contacted Ripmax as advised. They were very helpful and gave me instructions and an address to return the airbrush.

I posted the parcel and then waited. I was a little sceptical that Ripmax would fix my airbrush on behalf of another company without any paperwork showing proof of purchase etc.

I needn't have worried, a few days later the airbrush arrived in perfect working order.

A big thank you to Ripmax for their excellent service.

Mike
