Would be too frustrating for him to be tied behind a table,when there were 'goodies' to be bought! I know from experience and have missed out on bargains due to having to attend a table. Hey ho, next one will be on Sunday 14th December which is nicely timed just before Christmas and hopefully 'new' goodies to tempt!

Damn, you are right Adrian, I cant help loving those bargains. Yes, we did rather well, so glad you got that MEA 707 at a bargain price. To take home the AC Gen1 BA 707-436 at a perfectly reasonable price was a joy. Not to mention the 2 GJ CP Air models from last year, though the DC8 is in poor condition, really.Damn that Mr Moitie for getting the BEA Mudguard first, however.
I was a dirty stop out and stayed to do a mini shop at the CAM sale the next day (and see my 2nd SQ 380).
Hope to see more DA.C and 400SH folk at either Luton in October or Kempton in December. Folks, its time to get the overtime in!!
Saddest news was that the pub had stopped serving food when I get there, I shalll not make the same mistake next time.
