hi there ..
like most of us here in the uk ... for parts .. its internet only ... the best and only folk i use are forgebear ( dave ) and welshdragon ( steve )
there is another supplier .. tankzone ... but still getting reports of mpney sent ..but parts / not supplyed .. so my advice s to say well away for there .....
as for clubs ... theses us ... with various meets round the uk .... but actual club in the midlands ... no .... the 1/16 or large scale tank modeller has a tiny following ...as compaired with aircraft kits ....
here in somerset .. i think there are 5 of us with in a 75 miles of each other .... actualy surprised
we dont meet up once a month .... but i guess that the nature of an internet club...
taking about www tank clubs ... i limit my self to what i look at or to who i view....or you spend way too
much time on the www .. and doing no modelmakeing .....

P.S if everyone put there location on there detail people could see who lives near them.

Hi
I live in Stoke and I know that BREL lives in Stone. I for one would be very interested to meet up with nearby tankers on a regular basis. Anyone else interested?

Hiya, I'm just down the road in Bromsgrove, so slowly but surely we are increasing in numbers. Like the rest of the lads I use ( and highly recommend) both Dave and Steve, reliable AND fast service.
Abo.
