So farewell Airfix.
The fighter planes were the easiest - the Spitfire, the Hurricane, the ME-109. The Mosquito was slightly more difficult; the Lancaster was a nightmare. And the ships were a bit fiddly - the Graf Spee, the Bismarck. Then there was the silly wee tubes of glue, which if you squeezed them too hard burst at the wrong end.
But it was part of every male childhood in the 1950s. Like everyone else, I put the hours in. Hey, it was fun. And, for that, much thanks.
