Nothing really (we just get presents for the kids), but if any of the kids read this then rather than that pointless tat you buy me from the pound shop each year, you could all club together and get me an AR500 rx and then I would be a very happy man and the landfill site would be slightly less full the next bin day.

Bah humbug! >:(

Best of luck with that one
Ive given the missus a list of the following four and how to order - just waiting to see what santa brings - shes getting one and the three boys are getting one between them.
Galaxy Gazelle lV - had one of these years ago - bullet proof, good fun and cheap as chips - not a bad kit to build either.

Limbo Dancer - always was on the one day list and now slec have re kitted might be too good an offer to refuse.

VMAR Extreme Stick low winger - looks like a bit of cheap, quick and cheerful fun. had good reviews as well.

Balsa USA Eindecker 40 - always fancied one and ive got a spare 52 four stroke looking for a home.

just have to be patient now

Be careful what you wish for....

I have a lovely new pelvic aquaintance...trouble is modelling has really taken a back seat lately.....

Lack of energy prevents early morning starts and as for balsa bashing....well lets just say I had to soak the padlock on the garage door in wd40 the other day to get in there.

Rusted shut from lack of use!!

Still, when the choice is stand in middle of cold windy field playing with toy aeroplanes or spend quality time with new partner, its hardly a tough choice...

I'm not even asking for a modelling related present this year...

If my ex was still on scene it would have been 10 metres of natural solartex, glues,, paints etc to get my 1/3 scale nieuport started...

She'll have a hard job buying a World Models one.. ;D

I wish we had one to sell  ;D

We do have a nice new 1/3rd scale Velox coming. Its a little more pricey that the BH Chipmunk though. I don't think its going to be in stock for xmas.

Just posted my wish.

I am looking for my own flying field.

P.s

I also have left mags with red pen circled on various adverts.l...

Never gets.  :''

I am about to have more talks with my Farmer contacts, I'd love to find something that I could have a hut on and a pond...and maybe a car track... oh and a runway...

I'll probably get a bit of a rough field somewhere... and an orange...

LOL
