Wheeltapper Competition 2021
Covid19 restrictions were still in place in early 2021 which banned socialising so it was not possible to run the 2021 Wheeltapper Competition in person. Rob Thompson and Tim Peacock organised a remote competition where club members were invited to send in photographs of their recent models as competition entries. The competition was remotely judged by Jerry Clifford of Missenden Modellers who now earns a living as a professional model maker as well as writing for the model press.
