Oh my goodness. After years and years of passing the "Model Village" sign on the M4 - we finally took a trip to Beaconscot, which is the name of the fictional Model Village. Now, I was totally prepared for a "Model Village"... I thought!

You see I had seen the one in Hot Fuzz, and my expectations were set low. But nah!

Model Beasconscot is amazing. Trust me, I was that little kid that watched the trains and cars in the
Museum of Science & Industry for hours. This was better! I was entranced. I am adding pictures to show you the spectacular!
