A THANK YOU AND AN APOLOGY.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to all at K&C UK.It was great to see and talk to Mike,Tony,Bob and Dave.So good to get the chance to chat about all things K&C and see the superb display you laid on.Am really pleased with all the stuff i brought and am showing the wife the spoils of my trip!.:)

Now the apology!.A huge big sorry to everyone who was expecting a report from me.Within a very short time of arriving my back was killing me and i could no longer stay.I spoke to everyone at K&C and then made my choices.I'm really sorry everyone but it quickly became unbearable and i made for home.Gutted because i've waited so long for the show and wanted to give a nice report,it was not to be.Will write and apologise to all you nice people who asked me to do stuff.Sorry again:eek:

No Worries - Rob :)

Hope you feel better.

Ron
 
Cheers mate.I'm sure Tony will be posting pics and info soon.

Rob
 
Rob I sure hope you feel better soon. Back problems are the worst.

Of course I will say that your back problems helped you beat me in the New Modle Army contest.

Get well soon and take care.

Old Guard
 
Cheers old Guard,i appreciate that

Rob
 
Feel better buddy, I'm sorry you back messed up your show. I really sympathize right now, because my neck is out. I heard what I (incorrectly) thought was Alec falling, spun my head around to look, and blam, I was kaput.
 
Thanks Louis,i'm now at home with my feet up examining the lovely stuff i purchased.Hope your feeling better soon mate,that sounded nasty.Necks are really dibilatating when they go.Hope your ok again soon.

Rob,

Don't sweat it, take care of yourself and enjoy the loot you got from the show.

Carlos
 
Rob,

Cheers for the PM and again, sorry you're back failed you at this critical point.

So, what did you end up getting?

A Hummel by any chance (with box signed by JA)?

Simon
 
Thanks to both Carlos and Simon for your wishes,cheers you up when you feel c***!

I got AK Truck,Bren Gun carrier,Tommy Patrol,Grille SP Gun,German fighting patrol.And i got to have a good chat with all from K&C UK so am well happy if a little stiff in the old back.;)

Rob
 
Great stuff Rob! I can't wait to get my hands on the Afrika Corps Opel Blitz. I was drooling on it at the Symposium. It would be awesome if Andy would do a totally resculpted 8th Army version of the Bren Gun Carrier. The wood and metal one he did back in 1997 is just amazing, I would love to see him do one in polystone now that he has mastered track detail.
 
An 8th army Bren carrier would be great,put that one in the suggestion box Louis!

Rob
 
Rob,

I'm sorry to hear about the back. Unfortunately, I know how those things are. I hope it gets better, as best as it can. Did you ever try Skelaxin, it's a great muscle relaxer, at least for me anyway.
 
Cheers Rob:

Sorry to hear how about your SITREP! At least you made it to the show & were able to pick up some "feel good" items. Take your meds and try to relax. My offer still stands if you need some advice as my wife is in the medical field and I have been through multiple back operations so I have much to share. I hope you get your specialist appointment soon so that your quality of life may improve.

Hang Tough,
Beaufighter

We sufferers have to hang together mate!
 
Apparently bad backs and toy soldier collecting go hand in hand. Craig "Bubba" McClean from The Old Toy Soldier Home in San Diego has the worst back injury I've ever heard of on someone who isn't paralyzed, but somehow he keeps on plugging along. I have nothing but respect for guys who live with pain everyday but don't let it slow them down.
 
guys a good day had by all and great to see Some treefroggers.

the room set up was cool and I think it worked well for us and customers.

some good items showed off by lots of other dealers which we have some pics of. will share them Monday. I will also post the pics we took.

sorry the back went rob, iam in the same club now my back is 'knacking' after all the lugging of k&C.

best regards

Tony Neville
