Welcome to you, another recent joiner here. Llandudno is a great place have visited several times and always had a great stay. Are there any model shops in Llandudno, only reason I asked was that we looked around for one to try and get a gift for a nephew last time we were there and failed!! Happy modelling
Ian

Hi Ian Nice to hear from a fellow modeller Llandudno is a nice place to visit and live but as far as model shops go the answer is no. There are no model shops in N.Wales apart from one in Rhuddlan and one in Greenfield [near Queensferry] but both are mainly trains I have to use Hannants or any other mail order and the shows it is rather poor, but a good excuse to get a lot when ordering to save postage ( that's my excuse) Next time you visit let me know and we could meet and have a coffee if you like Cheers Martin

Shamai Martin Sadly, Model shops still wipe off at North Wales on few years ago, and Sadly Welsh Nationals Model Show 2006 in Harwich and lack of modellers around Welsh and no enough visitors attended in here on two days, really shame be IPMS North Wales branch but never register to branch. I still see an old school friends in Llandudno. I drive to Llandudno from Saltney about 45 or 55 minutes with main roads A55. I will find more details for Welsh Model Shops on further. Wrexham, and Mold model shops were gone on this year Welcome to you Cheers Martin Cheshire cat NH aka Hazmod
