We could always try Cheerleaders and pyrotechnics well if it's good enough for the Showjumping set............. :roll: A thought occurred to me that when I attended SPLASH last year, there were a few displays in the main concourse. If we had one of the Build a planes there it might pull a few more p...

As soon as I walk into a shop they start talking Polish, Armenian, Punjabi, Hindi, Tractor...... Usually it's the other...
