not quite a newbie

Morning everyone! Although I am not really a newbie on here,as I have been a member since 2012! I have not been very active,but I hope to rectify that over the coming months.Many of you will recognise me from another site,which I amongst many others Im sure,have become very disillusioned with.I shall say no more than that.
I have two main loves,in the modelling world,Lifeboats,and a certain Battleship,HMS RAMILLIES. I do not profess to be a modeller,known as I think a cheque book modeller.Yes I BUY my models.I do try to refurbish them,repaint them,alter items etc and Radio Controll them where I can.ALL my model Lifeboats are in 1/12th scale,and are all based on Cornish Lifeboats.One thing I do really enjoy doing with them,is displaying them throughout the country,at Lifeboat days and Steam Rallys etc,to raise much needed funds for the RNLI. Over the last six years I am proud to say,my wife and I have raised in the region of £10,000.00.
Well that is enough bragging from me. I hope I can be accepted as a member,and I am sure I will enjoy being on here and posting on here.
Many Thanks,
Mick F
