The Official Armortek Forum - World leader in one sixth scale metal kits

Hi Guys,

I am up for either the new Leighton hall site or Clive’s. Mind you the weather forecast isn't too good, it gives it cold first thing, which isn’t too bad, but then heavy snow/sleet and or heavy rain for mid morning and through into the night!

Plus my tiger still isn't back together!

Hi paul
your more than welcome on sunday guys, agree the weather looks naff, sorry to hear about the car richie hope Lisa is Ok

Hi Richie,

Do you want picking up on Sunday morning if your car is still out of action

Thanks Antony

hi guys

whats plans for tomorrow? as I've just had a phone call from Ian, think he wants to come as well. If we're all going to Clive's I don't mind picking people up on the way through.

Clive - Lisa's fine thanks, apart from a good earbashing , on the other hand the car is running like a bag of spanners after coming out of the garage, god knows what they have done , as its now crop spraying!! Taking it to a Ford garage on Monday.

Just a thought, is anyone interested in going for a Xmas meal anywhere, Just a thought, even a Holiday Inn or Travel lodge, somewhere central, all of us going for a meal, a few drinks and stopping over? If anyone fancies it speak out.

I'm going to take a chance and be at Leighton Hall main gate at 10.30am. Hopefully I won't be the only one

Thanks Antony

Hi Richie,

I missed the Xmas thing before . I'm definately up for that, what a great idea . Maybe we could make it a Saturday and run the tanks before hand .

See you all tomorrow.

Thanks Antony

Hi Guys,

Which site at Leighton Hall, new or old?

Paul .

Hi Paul,

I am going to wait at the main gate, then go and have a look at the new site and maybe the other one too

Thanks Antony

Hi Ant

Hi Clive,

Turret rotation and few views of the lads in the freezing cold wind.



Thanks Antony

Hi Antony
Great pictures and video!!!
Sorry about the swearing (glad you can't hear it, but i was bloody cold)
Can you make 5th December for the xmas night out, under Events on this forum?
Need to know for numbers for meal and room bookings.
Thats a funny face Clive's pulling, or is it some type of wind dance......
