Congratulations, Mark, yours is model number 100 on my list. So we're well placed for the Guinness record attempt if we can all get to Bovvy intact. Look forward to seeing everyone in a week and a bit. Thanks for all the pics of models, which will help with documenting the record attempt. Still more to come though please.

Regards.

Stephen

Absolutely brilliant that we have reached the 100 mark!! thank you to you all. It is going to be quite a spectacle and the group shot is certainly going to be a challenge!

There are a few people who have posted here who were not on mine or Stephen's list, not a problem as all now added. However, if you can add your details here, if you have not already that would be really helpful. Also anyone who has not sent in a photo of the model/models you are bringing that would really help Stephen if you could do so.

Many thanks
Gill

I add myself to this list with a Friday late afternoon arrival and drop off of a Tiger 1, Cromwell, and Mark IV.
The motto for the day should be 'Noli me tangere'?
Looking forward to the weekend!

Wow ! By my count, that's four Mk. IV's - Steve, Daniel, John and myself. That'll be brilliant ! Probably the biggest gathering since the Armistice ..........

An over-enthused,

Chris, here's the line up with 101 entries so far:

King Tiger - 7
Tiger - 19
Panther - 3
Jagdpanther - 2
Pak 43/41 - 3
Mk IV - 4
Bergepanther - 1
T34 - 3
Centurion - 6
Comet - 8
Sturmtiger - 2
SdKfz 7 - 5
88 - 6
SdKfz 222 - 6
Panzer III - 6
Sherman Firefly - 2
Sherman - 3
25 pdr - 7
Limber - 6
Stug III - 1
SdKfz 251 - 1

Now if we could find someone to bring a Panzer IV and an M16 Half Track, we'd have a full house. When we do the layout in the Tank Story Hall, we'll mark some areas on the floor where, for those who wish, we can group models of the same type. There's already one earmarked for the Mark IVs.

All the best.

Stephen

Stephen -

That sounds great ! Would it be near the Mark II and Whippet, perchance ? And, if so, can I bring a few of my trinkets along to make a bit of a WW1 Tank display ? Only a board and a couple of tables - nothing too enormous !

Looking forward to the Big Day,

Chris
