WELCOME
s I write this, it is the night
before Scale Modelworld
at Telford and I know that
just like a child before Christmas,
I will not get much sleep tonight.
This is mainly as I will be
driving the van taking the stand
to Telford. I have to be up early to
collect it from the hire shop and
then spending a couple of hours
loading up before attacking the
UK motorway network. But there
is still that little bit inside of me
that gets excited at what is going
to be unveiled over the weekend,
what will be new at the show and
what bargains can I ind to add
the never diminishing stash.
I have now been attending
the UK nationals for over 30
years and have seen it grow from
the small venue at Stoneleigh
that was its home for many
years, then via Donnington and
Peterborough, to the Telford
International Center. When we
irst moved to Telford the show
took up one large exhibition hall,
but as the Telford International
Center has expanded, so has

the show, so that it now ills
3 halls. To give our American
readers an idea of the scale, the
whole US nationals would it
into one hall at Telford with a
bit of room to spare. But there
is a bigger diference between
our American cousins and us!
The US show is all about the
competition and the trader’s
hall, but in the UK it is all about
clubs and Special Interest Groups
(S.I.G’s), with over 190 showing
of their work and more than
happy to chat about all aspects
of modelling. Then we have the
International section, this is the
area were the modellers from
around the world appreciate
each other’s talents as well as
more than a little of each other’s
countries alcoholic products.
Of course, 150 plus traders
will be doing their best to
lighten my load by emptying my
wallet with all the things that
I never thought I would need
until I saw them at the show.
And of course we will have
the announcements, what will
Airix’s next big release be this
year? A 1/48 scale Vulcan anyone!
Will Tamiya, Zoukei-Mura, Revell
or Wingnut Wings be announcing
anything new. And let us not
forget the numerous smaller
companies that use Telford
as their one chance to sell the
majority of this year’s production.
But to me there is something
that is even more amazing about
Scale Modelworld and that is
that like many model shows
around the world the whole
event is organised by volunteers
from the IPMS. They all have
day jobs and families but still
sacriice hours of there time
so you and I can have the most
amazing experiences every year.
So to all those hard working
members of the IPMS thank
you so much and long may you
continue providing such an
amazing experience to modellers
from all around the world.
