I will be there along with karen and my baby daughter jessica so if you see us come and say hi.
You wont be able to miss us as we will be the ones getting in everybodys way with the push chair :laugh:
Well i enjoyed the show albeit a wee bit stressed keeping tabs on a certain round we had for sale on the stall as i deffo didnt want that one going M.I.A!!!!
Great to meet some of you lads both old pals and new members ive not met before.
Line up including my old muckers Quatermass and Bazooka Chris(nipper and wife in tow too!),Munitionskiste,Falcon,SG500(and his 'mini-me' too!),FOO31(i hope you managed to get a train home ok pal?),Germanmilitaria and Hangarman.
Sorry if ive missed anyone off the list,but as you know i was stressd out plus not much kip the night before but thats another story! lol
I did have a few good sales thankfully plus i picked up one or two little items for the collection. There was an extremely overpriced 17a fuze up for grabs but i refused to pay the extortionate price the seller wanted however,im currently in negociations with the chap so i may land it shortly(Satan18,PM me or landy call when you can my old friend)
Will take a couple of shots of the new swag in daylight tomorrow.

Did you come and have a gander on my stall buddy?
We were up in Hall 3. Cant have missed us,there was a grey haired geezer and a tall,handsome fella in a german tunic selling ammo....:flute:
I got a clamp for a german ww2 booby trap,a FLaK 37 brass case and some silk charge bags.Not a great deal of pickings but some you win,some you lose.
Whoops!,i had almost forgotten the mock up B1 Incendiary i got that came with original stamped tails.That will teach me to leave the damned thing under my deckchair and wrap it up in the bag! lol
yes was great to see everybody and it was also jessicas first militaria show which was cool got a few good bits for my collection aswell which was great.
A special thanks must also go to waff for the item he bought down for me but waff karens not my wife remember :damnmate:
Did anybody spot us carting all my stuff back to the car using jessicas pushcair ? thought i was going to snap it in half with all the weight. :laugh:
ahahahah!! mate,you just made my day with that statement!:xd:
Indeed that Crayford was not going anywhere it shouldnt have,on my watch that day.
You sure we didnt have the fuze you was looking for? Swear blind Mick had one on the table early on?
I will ask him in a mo,as im going to phone him.
Stay tuned
I was pmsl Chris when you waltzed off with the pram full of swag instead of baby Jessica.lol:tinysmile_fatgrin_t
Im gonna call karen your wife all the time now just for the bug factor!:hahaha:
so was most other people when they saw me, the pram was certainly bending under the strain :laugh: i was expecting it to give way half way to the car park and spill my stuff all over the floor.
Doesnt bother me about karen as if shes called my wife then that actually saves me getting married so result :biggrin:
It was good to meet Waff, even if i didnt buy anything off him! Picked up a nice mills 36 with base plug and center tube, painted white and strangely also covered in mud! Nice find for 15 though. Bought some "interesting" 7.92 BESA drill rounds and a 30mm ADEN case for an AP round. Nothing much else that excited me, apart from the deact Welrod.
Looking forward to the next one though...
Hangarman
hangarman,are you at the next leeds show in two weeks?
phlarris,sorry matey,we are all out of the fuze you are seeking however i do see them up on SA quite often?
Good hunting.
