Steve 1602 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Hello all, I'm a long term "lurker" on Britmodeller, so I thought it long overdue to actually start posting! My modelling interests are mainly WW2 aviation - and I seem to have a very unhealthy obsession with Spitfires..... I'm ex military and served in the Royal Navy for a short spell before shifting to the Army, where I served for 17 years. I also spent some time in the Australian Army, so am a serial uniform collector I guess! I'm in my forties (just) and married with a young family. My non-modelling interests include watching most ball sports, running (slowly), cycling (cautiously) and cooking (adequately....!). I don't have a huge amount of time for making kits, but I find it relaxing when time permits; sometimes it's almost as satisfying to look at the work of members on here!

Eric Mc Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 You sound like a well rounded personality - apart from building model kits of course Will you be going to the IPMS Salisbury Show on 3 June? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Eric, yes I certainly hope to go along - I saw a flyer in Salisbury Model Centre a few weeks back and put in an early bid for domestic clearance from chores!

Martin Ford Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Hi Steve and sounds like you have a busy life. It's always nice to fit in some modelling time. You're right it is relaxing even if I only have a spare ten minutes to have a go, it can be rewarding. All the best, Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
