Robin, well done mate. The effort you put in is a marvel, to think you have to pack it all away every time. {bravo}}
Wayne.

Thanks Wayne and yes it's a big job storing it, nothing can be out on show except in my small home office which is bursting at the seams, barely can find carpet on the floor being covered with boxes, all shelves in my office are used for storage, so no room for a display. To have off site storage as I used to have for my 1/18 collection is no longer an option as I want to have my collection at all times close to hand. My fault as I cannot stop increasing the collection. Cheers, Robin.

Nice photo's Robin and i totally know what you mean about space, im not game to open me cupboard doors in fear of being buried in K&C, Figarti, TG and CS boxes! Me display cabinets are creaking and groaning with all my vehicles and troops as well.

That shed that Wayne sent looks nice and would solve my problems forever!

brilliant and what a collection

Thank you, spent along last week going from start to finish on your Arnhem thread. What a great thread, possibly my favourite era. Interesting to see how your Arnhem 44 grew and I imaged how pleased you would have been to add the new sets as they were released. With the release of the Operation Market Garden it might have for a time put you in a tricky spot being do you collect the entire series once again, but I see you bit the bullet and added them also. Going to have do something soon about the Horsa glider you have also. Cannot find a similar one on line even in kits, may have to contact Gordon and see if he can make me one, think it will be the only way I will ever get one. Cheers, Robin.
