I believe that over the next few weeks some members may set aside their brushes and enjoy some football jut for a change. I just hope the England fans going up the amazon take plenty, and I mean plenty of bug cream sun cream factor 200 and wear plenty. Dont go near little rough patches of grass...

Super base Ron. Your work just gets better all the time. Don

Superb work Stu, will have to get one of these from you! Don

Denstore I believe that the brush tables at Euro will be very busy this year. Lots of punters trying to find a new type of brush for them to use. Nothing like getting a few brushes together to try them out. Thats a hint for brush selling people. Don

Wonderful Bust Stu, outstanding and Marks painting is a work of art. Don

Colin, I had no intention or intrest really in starting a flame war. Dont know what a "flame war" is actually. I had just got fed up, like a few members on here of the annual Save the Sable campaign. We have had it before with a very small responce, so how often do we need to hear about the...

You must be very proud of your Dad Chris and I dont blame you. The school named after him must have pleased him no end. Did you get to meet any of the people rom the film? Tell your Dad there is a whole lot of people on Planet who thank him and all his mates for what they did. Don

Mike I did see that and know the vets loved it, she was after all THEIR Queen. It was the rather useless politicians I was talking about, dont know what they were there for. The French President and Prime Minister were the only politicians who recognised and mixed with the old soldiers. Don

The best movie ever (Well perhaps Zulu at a pinch) Danny, Peachie and Rifleman Billy Fish a trio that could rule anywhere. Only problem I see is Danny has no arms, so where will you put his arrow? Wonderful set Steve, cant wait for their release. Don

Sorry Keith you are right the French people should never be forgotten. What they did during WW2 was outstanding. Loved the old chap in a wheelchair who was keeping time with the band, wonderful. Don

Almost always use car primer for resin, Halfords Grey and White. Never had a problem. Always scrub with an old toothbrush using dishwashing liquid. I have heard you can put enamels straight onto resin, after cleaning of course, but never been brave enough to try it. Don

Watched a wg=hole lot of the 70th Aniversary for there old heroes and it was wonderful. Apart from the old soldiers doing their bit (again) I have to say that the British and French Military did a wonderful job putting it all together. A big thanks to all who took part. It was super to see so...

Watched the Corps of Drums forming a Drumhead Ceremony today at Portsmouth. Always great to see the Royal Marines on TV, cant get enough of it. Don

Steve I had an Uncle who was in the water twice on the same trip. His first ship was set on fire and against all orders a tanker came slowly alongside and picked up the crew then carried on. Day or two later he was eating in the mess deck when that one was torpedoed and blew up. He said he woke...

Had a few daya in bed since this started and its a cracker Steve. You finished him perfectly. While bedbound I was reading about an old WW 1 destroyer on the Murmansk run where the captain and the OOD were stuck on the bridge themselves for four days due to bad weather. Reading that I was...

Thanks Steve, Dad spent some 5 years on convoys, never saw his duffle coat then but got used to it over the years when he came home and we were both home at the same time. He even used his last Bridge duffle coat after he retired, walking the dog. A well used coat. Don

Doing a crackng job on a very nice figure. Will be following (and admiring) where you go from here. Don

Steve I think you and Steve Leadly have done a great job with this figure. Steve (Valiant) great job getting the Duffle coat right. Spent years looking at my dads bridge coat and thats just about right. I was lucky, you dont need a bridge coat in the engine room! No more snow Steve, bridge wings...

Just been hearing about the troops today. Very well done indeed. Dell did very well for a nicely turned out display, and the best nameplates. Ron and Davie also did well and I believe their hosts were super! Plenty of people, lots of models, great venue and super hosts, what more can anyone ask...

Nothing, I just read what it says on the tin and continued other peoples posts. It does say "off topic" after all!
