Hey Michael,
How are you doing? I am fine, but forced to stay a couple of days home again due to the lack of orders (kurzarbeit!!!
:(Yes, unfortunally we also have those problems in Holland!!! We export a lot to Germany and our factory is in the economical crises circle involved also!!!) The "good" part of this is, now I have time for my hobby's!!!
Looking through your albums on Fotki I found out that we share many things!
I love to build modellkits (trucks, military, airplanes, or just that what I like, sometimes it is good to build something quit different, makes yourself "better"), I do also planespotting and as far I have the time for it also trainspotting. Like Hank Suderman I do have also my favorite spotting place for trucks on the highway (A-3 Arnheim-Oberhausen, the overpass at the restaerea "Hetter")!!!
I also love to go to modellbuildingshows (I was in Intermodellbau Dortmund), it makes always fun to see what other people build and have some good conversations (discussions) about it!
Wich show are you planning to go to??? Will there be also a show in Cologne again??? Visit it a couple of years ago and liked it very much!!! Unfortunally I wasn't able to find out the right dates for that show again.
Hope to hear from you back again, (you can also send me a PM in German language when it makes it easier for you).
Greetings from Emmerich,
Leo
