| Coming in out of the Cold Hi all I've been lurking around for a while and thought I'd stop by and say hello..... Hello!! About me, erm I'm a British ex-pat living in NZ my main interest is the B-24 Liberator in RAF and Commonwealth use. I've run a website about this subject for over 10 years now, links http://www.acseac.co.uk & RAF Liberator Squadrons I got back in to modelling about a year ago after a long break and have been displaying some stuff on another forum. This forum's not as active as this one but it is friendly and does lack the usual rivet and bolt counters evident in a lot of forums. Maglar says you're a good bunch so I thought I'd make myself known  Gary or Gaz (I don't mind which) |
