Please note,if you are attending the show as a club or trader,and there are more than 2 people manning your table,to bring your own chairs/seating due to the leisure centre only being able to provide for 2 chairs per table. Thanks for your understanding in this matter,and look forward to seeing you at the show. -

Just checked the Hinckley and Bosworth council web page.All council operated car parks are FREE on Sundays.😉🤩 -
Ah yes,Stones in the park,unfortunately had a bit of a mishap there.An Hells Angels boot caught the top of my head as he jumped over me to get to some 'Skinheads'.Had to get some medical treatment.Do remember the release of the butterflies in commemoration of Brian Jones. Saw AC/DC twice in Leicester,once with Bon Scott then Brian Johnson.Simple Minds,one performance in Leicester,the other at the Milton Keynes bowl.Last concert ever attended🤫 was in 1995 to see Plant and Page,absolutley brilliant performance.

I originally bought this figure about 3 years ago,along with 3 more to go with it,and they are fine.Have ordered a UV pen and will try that.👍😉 -

Alfisti replied to Alfisti's topic in Figure Discussion
Thanks lads.Think its a 3D print as its got the plinth things on certain parts.Will try the 'sunshine' method.Can I wait until June?🤣 -
I bought a resin1/16th figure about 2 years ago and now require it for a diorama.Upon opening the package,I've found that there is this sticky residue over the top half of the figure and the legs have split.Not too concerned about the splitting as I can correct this,but what can I use to clean off the residue?Have tried Isopropyl which seems to have little effect.TIA........Dave.
