The lingerie models in your Mum's Kay's catalogue don't count..........Sad gits. The only models I ever had in my bedroom were underwear models.

Never knew that the place existed, or I'd have popped in. Having googled it, I suspect that I may have visited the actual premises regularly as a kid, usually dragged kicking and screaming to get "scalped" -it was the local barbers ! Now if it been a model shop back then, my parents difficulty would have been getting me out of it !Went in yesterday to pick up a couple of bits (ended up buying 2 more kits) had a bit of a yap with him seems it just doesn't pay these days to own a business premises if people don't go in from one year to the next.
Maybe if it had been in a slightly better location more people would at least have popped in for a nose around ? The role playing model shop in Heavitree didn't last very long tbh because it just wasn't the right place to have a shop like that there.
Maybe the way forward is closing the physical shop and setting up an online shop? It's got to be cheaper, Stock at home or garage, Decent website and courier or mailing service. You just have to look online and see it can be a money spinnerWent in yesterday to pick up a couple of bits (ended up buying 2 more kits) had a bit of a yap with him seems it just doesn't pay these days to own a business premises if people don't go in from one year to the next.

That's what he was basically saying to me even though I bought 2 kits some glue and filler he reckoned he would earn about £3 after any outlays which is nothing when the lights probably cost that for a day.Maybe the way forward is closing the physical shop and setting up an online shop?
