Hello to all our book readers!

As you can see from the recent releases, Osprey continue to produce varied topics and these are ongoing. Red Kite Publishing out of the UK seemed to have found a winning formula. The last of the Luftwaffe Crash Archives is here. They are mid way through the Battle of Britain Combat Archive and the second of the Dunkirk booklets is due soon. They've also just started a new series on the Nachtjagd (German Night Fighters) by Theo Boiten and this adds much information to his previous books.

Crecy is building an empire in aviation and railway books. In the rail and road section they have acquired Ian Allen, OPC, Midland, Noodle Kestel and Southern Way. In aviation they have Midland Counties, Hikoki, Classic and others. Below is a collage of recent arrivals.

On an exciting note, we were recently visited by David and Candice from Metro Hobbies who revealed they have a new premises for re-establishing their city store. It is in close proximity to our premises and we hope that customers will appreciate the closeness of our respective locations and plan co-visits. More information when they get closer to opening.

We have been in a new location for over 18 months and we haven't seen some of our readers. So feel free to visit, browse and see new releases and some specials.

For now goodbye, but be aware 'sale' season is approaching with some great deals.

See you soon,

Neil, Helen and the Team
