A chap at the Plessey factory in Beeston had a control line plane with a little [compression?] engine on the front. We used to say that he "Swung it around his head in circles". Needless to say that he was not very pleased to hear this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

plantfit 7,597 Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 Such a shame if we lose Gee Dee models,whenever I come over to Nottingham I always pay a visit to the shop just to have a look round,I wish both of them a long and happy retirement and I am sure they will look back at all the happiness they have bought to others through their commitment and enthusiasm to the modelling community Rog Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveN 1,118 Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 I expect many of us will have visited Gee Dee Model Shop in our younger years. It is now for sale - let's hope someone buys it and it just doesn't close. http://www.nottinghampost.com/will-it-be-full-steam-ahead-for-nottingham-model-shop/story-30340408-detail/story.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
