yah know guys nung dati i thought this kind of hobby is extremely rare here in our country but little did i know dami pla gmagawa nito!! kaya nga masaya ako!!

the only thing that i hate is that why are some hobby shops need to be located in some remote parts of manila. like un STC sa isetann...kakatakot pumunta dun lalo na paglabaas mo ng store parang daming squatter na hoholdupin ka nytime. sa harrison din un jmn parang ang liblib dun kc one tym me xperience ako muntik na ata ako maholdup paglabas ko ng jmn sa harrison

la lng nsyt ko lng. #:-)

Jomz: And here I was thinking that you'd be graduating this semester...

Flex_CS: Do check the Operation Jiminy Cricket. It's a meet at JMN on the 20th of Dekabr. Hopefully, some of the Elders of IPMS-Phils. (BAC) can come as well.

BTW, I reckon we're not a rare breed. We're just... more hidden, like Hobbits.

Thanks Lonewolf. I hope I wont be out of place here since I'm a purely aircraft modeler

Anytime Shonen... In the meantime, when building an aircraft kit, just imagine you're building a tank... that requires constant sanding.... and decals!

Hope we meet when Operation JiMiNy pushes through... And I hope we can reset it on another date since I can't make it on the 20th!!!!!!
