CBK plug by Airfix

What makes a British kit a Classic? What Classic kit is really British? What is the SIG all about and what goes on...from initial musings, to full on campaigning. It'll all be here, interspersed with talk of Texan Bars, Alias Smith & Jones and The Flashing Blade, Footy Cards and Bath Night, before School.

Got the latest Airfix update email that included a nice photo of the CBK display at Telford.

Pretty cool.

I've just skimmed it so far but it's a nice piece about David's (Skypirate) trip over last year for Telford as he was one of the attendees who had travelled the furthest. He's done a grand job of naming checking the CBK SIG and UAMF!

Very cool, and mentions our David (Skypirate) heavily.

Well I never expected to see my ugly mug on such an esteemed site!

I must build the S6B that was my ‘lucky dip’ from David, for CBK 2019 at Telford.
