A master model builder friend of mine, has in his horde, no fewer than SIX unbuilt, still-in-their-shrink wrap Pocher model kits.
I keep telling him, if ya post those on eBait, he’d likely end up with enough money for a good vakay!

The good lady wife and I took two cars to the All British Day in 2018 at The Kings School. She’s not much for early starts so we camped in Parramatta. I was surprised to find the two nippers flanking our XJ6 the next morning. Admittedly our car was a lot longer! Paul
