Should be interesting, as long as Emerdale , East Enders has finished my wife might , just might let me have the controlls _________________ mine is a pint of J Smiths Smooth please
Always the spitfire. Could have made a Hurricane instead. There's not many of them about. If he was doing the first ever Airfix kit it should have been a Fordson Tractor. _________________ Get off the line Bobby!

I can't remember what my first kit was Just remember my Dad made most of it . I did make a lot of tanks in my early kit making days as i was into 'War Games' I still have a lot of solders all mixed up in a box . Saving them just in case i do a 40's~50's layout with an Army camp . _________________ Experience is something you don' t get until just after you need it .
Mine was a Hawker Typhoon. I liked the radiator. Must have been years before I bought a spitfire and then it came with a 110 in the Dogfight Doubles series. _________________ Get off the line Bobby!

Thinking about it i can remember building a Vauxhall car by myself when i was about 7 or 8 years old . My Dad was never into modelling so i would get bored as it was taking too long for him to build things _________________ Experience is something you don' t get until just after you need it .
*Puts Airfix anorak on (I've been building them for over 50 years) and starts spouting 'interesting facts'... sorry*
The model that was built was NOT the original design for BT-K. They actually used the later 1965 MkIV kit to produce the 1:1 kit.
The original BT-K was a copy of a 1:48 Aurora kit [complete with the same fake squadron codes (BT-K) and the same inaccuracies and exactly the same parts sprue, just a smaller scale] which came out a couple of months before the Airfix one. No-one in Airfix can 'remember' if there was a deal done with Aurora but both companies 'were on friendly terms' at the time.
Superb programme, I enjoyed every minute and look forward to the rest... _________________ OK, so now what do I do?
Iplayer it is I meant to set a reminder so I wouldn't forget to watch it but I forgot to set the reminder...
I forgot it`s my wife`s birthday in 2 weeks time, but she has reminded me 3 times to-day
I remembered yesterday so took her to Hull on the Train (another treat) bought her a new small telly for the kitchen for her birthday, so should be able to watch some programes myself now. _________________ mine is a pint of J Smiths Smooth please
