i picked up issue 100 today, so thats another binder full of magazines. only one more binder to fill up. i've found that building victory this way is a bit like getting old, issues 1-20 seemed to take ages 21-40 went a bit quicker,and so on, but 81-100 has flown in it does not seem that long since i was working on the mizzen mast. so, only 20 more to go...........i wonder what will come after victory. Come on you Jimmies

Hi Shipmates! T-20 ISSUES AND COUNTING!  only £119.80 to pay. I already paid WHSmiths £17.97 deposit and I get that back at the end. How time flies when you’re enjoying yourself! We're all a lot older, a lot wiser and I'm skint.  Those extras cost so much but they are worth it in the end. Yes Bob, I too wonder what will come after victory, well I'm getting the H.M.S. Hood so I think that will be my next ship when I have finished the Victory, but I'll see what else is available later in the year. Darron

Darron i forgot about the deposit at the newsagents, mine only takes 2 issues worth, so thats only 18 to pay for. i've just subscribed to the akagi so that should keep me busy, and i've still to finish my san francisco, but it will be interesting to see whats going to come in the future. Come on you Jimmies

Hi Del_Boy, I thought we had 1 & 2 in the first parcel, 3 & 4 in the second, then 5,6,7 & 8 in the third. My subscriptions last week stated 1 & 2 had been sent with a date of 7/3/2012. I don't know if someone is seeing into the future  or that's the delivery date. Mal.

Hi max from my experience the date of the 7th is the date they send it out. you will,if like myself, probably recieve a few weeks from that. so far i have recived my deliverys around the 20th of the month. not an exact science im afraid! Exciting stuff tho waiting for those first issues. welcome and hope you enjoy. Mike Mike
