Blimey, do we really only have one GB running at the moment? Makes a bit of a change, usually we're overun with them. Nice to see the flyboys keeping their end up, what's up with everyone else . I suppose we could always have an Anson GB to fill in some space.
Ducks and runs for cover....

You know I was going to start it and then I signed up for the Rapide GB, then the RAF GB, then the Seaplane GB.......
I think I need to stop signing up for GB's, shoot didn't I just vote for a Cold War Jets GB and Medium Bomber GB.

Hi my names Richard and I'm addicted to GB's......

Well, there is a floaty one starting next month and the WW2 Africa Campaign one the day after.  What with it being the start of the holiday season for many, I doubt if there is much appetite for many GBs at the moment - especially not Ansons.....

I was always under the impression there was [heracy]never[/heracy] an appetite for Anson GB's

I am sure that we can sort out a couple of military vehicle builds to tide us over

fantastic, just a point of curiosity- but why are there no group builds running throughout October?

There's a GB Calander here, which shows what's running and upcoming. At the moment there is the Medium Bombers GB and Liners at war running, with the Carriers and Diorama GB to start on the15th.

As with all the GB's on the forum, they are prompted by member suggestions and interest, so if you are interested in a GB, make a suggestion in the relevent thread and see what interest there is. There's no limit to how many can run concurrently from the different genres, so a cars or motorbikes GB could also run, along with space, figures etc. All that's needed is a GB leader and 3 or 4 interested members to take part to make it happen.

We are in a better positions with GB's now, in that the calander is only occupied for the next 3 months, so a new build can be suggested and slotted in pretty quickly. I can remember a time when we'd filled the calander for the next year +!

Anyway this sort of chat is better suited to the GB chat section so I'll split the posts off there.
