#TankMuseum #Armour #DayTrip

Today at Badgerworks, we present an overview of our recent trip to @thetankmuseum , Bovington. The museum invited us down for the South West Model Show as a thank you for our recent charity auction and for taking part in their salute to model making. We had a fantastic time and heartily recommend the place to anyone with even a cursory interest in armoured vehicles. There's lots for the kids to do to too, so take the family and make a day of it.
