This is what the ancient proverb refers to, "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is to have brothers/friends together."
It is truly a special and fun experience to sit with fellow hobbyists, talk and show off models, eat and drink.
beautiful models

we Also, have same experience in the last Friday, 8 friends met at friend house in Jerusalem and had a similar experience.
