Hello! In this episode James talks to Malcolm about his Scale Model World experience including the competition review, the traders and The Nuts Award.  After having met so many good folk and looking at so many fantastic model making projects it is inevitable that Malcolm forgot some people to mention.

Hello! In this episode we will be making conversation about our extra special visit to the Imperial War Museum in Duxford, UK.  Reference photographs for the Mustang P-51B was our mission.  We took a trip around just three hangers at the Museum but did not have the time to explore the entire space.  Maybe a return trip is on the cards? Our thanks to the the staff for giving us the space to make this podcast and view their amazing exhibits.  Particular thanks to the restoration staff for their time and expertise.
