MK pri MsKS Rimavská Sobota v Telforde

Ako už máme vo zvyku, na každej súťaži kam ideme, udeľujeme špeciálnu cenu MK MsKS Rimavská Sobota. Výnimkou nebol ani Telford, kde som udelil našu plaketku dvom modelom, a to dioráme s Tigrom I (Window shopping) a Fiatu „Mephestopheles.“

As we have in habit, at every competition we attend, we give special award of MK MsKS Rimavská Sobota. Telford was no exception, where I awarded two models – diorama with Tiger I called “Window Shopping” and a Fiat “Mephestophele” by our medal.

No ale poďme k pointe. Krátko po udelení týchto cien som mal telefonát od Jána Moravčíka, ktorého zastavil pán Peter Buckingham – autor spomínaného Fiatu. Na plakete, ktorú sme mu nechali pri modeli, si všimol slovenskú vlajku a na našich tričkách si všimol eastmodels.SK. Tak si to spojil, že sme zo Slovenska a chcel sa nám osobne poďakovať. Celkom výkon nájsť nás v takej mase ľudí. Počas rozhovoru nám vyjadril obrovskú vďaku a prekvapenie. Tak isto nám porozprával ako model staval, čo všetko upravil a samozrejme nemohla chýbať fotka aj s modelom.

But let’s go to the point. A while after giving these two awards I had a phone call from Ján Moravčík, who was stopped by Mr. Peter Buckingham – author of mentioned Fiat. He noticed the flag of Slovak Republic on the medal I gave him to the model. He connected it with the sign on our T-shirts (eastmodels.SK) and wanted to say “Thank you” personally. I have to tell you, it wasn’t easy to find us in the mass of people these sizes.  While we were talking, Peter expressed us great glory and surprise. He also told us, how he built the model, what he adjusted on the kit and we made a photo with Peter of course.

Pre mňa to bol jeden z najprekvapivejších a najkrajších momentov z SMW Telford 2016. Som rád, že sa nájdu ľudia, ktorí si takéto ocenenia tak mimoriadne vážia. S Petrom sme si vymenili kontakty a dodnes komunikujeme.

This was one of the most surprising and most beautiful moment from SMW Telford 2016 for me. I am very glad, that there are still some people, who appreciate awards like Peter does. We changed contacts with Peter and we are still in contact.
