Greetings and Salutations Folks

The Cornish Scale Modellers (incorporating IPMS West Cornwall) are holding their annual Model Show & Competition at St John's Hall in Penzance on Saturday 1st September.

Doors open to the public at 10am.

Clubs, traders and exhibitors will be displaying all types of scale modelling. Full size Military vehicles and an RC Tank driving course are just some of the things to be enjoyed at the Show, along with the best Pasties in Cornwall.

Hi jackwagon

I'm going to be doing my celebrated impression of a Club Chairman on the verge of a Nervous Breakdown.

But I should have a pair of helper monkeys with cameras on duty.

For once, this year, we had good weather in Cornwall. The trip to Penzance was an enjoyable one with no traffic problems and Lyn and i arrived at the show about 11am. The show is typical of the smaller regional shows and that always means a good atmosphere with none of the "grandstanding" you can get at the more prestigious shows. If i remember correctly there were three traders there plus clubs from Exeter and Plymouth. There was a wide range of models on show and the following photos are what caught my eye.

Totally agree with you Nemo, smaller shows are more relaxed and can be more fun as you do not have loads of ppl pushing shoving to get to bargains or whatever......just a shame that the hall smelled of damp*lol* After all the work in the new house to get rid of all the damp, that was the last smell i wanted to smell so soon
