Looks like you had a great day out, its good to see some models running and I agree that the KT is one impressive model. No rain? I wish I could say the same down here in the south east, yet another wet day!! it looks as if you've found a good venue also.

[Robert E Morey]

Wow fantastic looking models guys. The KT and later Tiger are beautifully painted. Looks like a great place to get em dirty.

Thanks for the comments Allan & Bob

You're right the KT & the Tiger both have superb paint jobs and detailing and yes it's a great place to run the tanks as long as you miss the odd dog mine

Great day out, and thanks to Ant for the bacon butties ,
Richie and i did manage to set off home in the wrong direction but soon found a turn off that put us in the right direction.
