You've obviously not done any of their 1/48 Op Herrick range John. Great kits. And I just bagged the 1/48 Merlin down from £60 to £20

Here's the link for the sale: http://www.airfix.com/uk-en/shop/black-friday-sale/sort-by/price/sort-direction/asc.html?dm_i=2DJZ%2CI8SX%2C231AN2%2C16P57%2C1&utm_campaign=851217_Airfix+-+Black+Friday+Starts+Now+-+Week+35+2015&utm_content=Black+Friday&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Hornby+PLC

I'm so glad you said that...

I'm going to dig myself a hole
Gonna lie down in it till I satisfy my soul.
