Phil great looking work, just seen "Beneath Hill 60" & this helps provide a fitting tribute to the Western Front diggers (no pun intended ;-) Even thought of doing a kiwi tunneller?

John, trust you & the family are coping OK with the aftershocks. I've just got home so still got lots to get on top of so will be in touch when more time available.

Movie is full of ideas Phil, some grim & sad, plus some amusing.
The young guy at the listening post detecting his heart beat is a poignant tale in the film, so can certainly see where you could go with this.

Look forward to one day painting one of your pieces too mate.
Please do keep on inspiring us.

One of the best, maybe the best movie about WW 1.
So much better then Passchendaele.
