Many thanks for the responses. It's not an immediate project but I knew that sometime I would need the information.

My Post was not aimed at you mate, you had already posted a like for Chris for the information he posted which you wanted.

apologies mick and apologies to one and all, I have been ill with MAN FLU, which I am sure you will all sympathise with, apart from my caring wife who says it is just a head cold. I appreciate ALL help and advice, so please excuse my delay in answering. thank you/badger

Dreadful this manflu, my old man used to swear by a Rum bandage,
sticking plaster on the thumb and a large rum.
as for the figure , I have lengthened the kilt, and raised the right arm, and increased the fringe on the bonnet and increased the plume, similar to the painting, I know these paintings have a lot of faults , but they are impressive. /badger
hi mick,I am painting the colours,but the moulding of the flag has sections which someone has painted with the words balaclava andi think cawnapore above it,this looks good but different from any images of the flag, do you have any illustrations or advice on painting the flag,if you can help at all, I would be gratefull. thank you/badger

If I can just throw in my tuppence worth, Balaklava is always spelled with a K in the Regiment and on the colours. Those French battle honours belong to the 91st, the 93rd were not involved in the Peninsula. On the painted model the spat buttons look quite dark but they would be white or bone, it's probably just shadow though. I have images of the old colours at home, I'll try and dig them out.

I just thought it was a nice thing to print off for the collection. I can search it out myself, thanks.
Scottish ? I bet it was probably a 1p bet

It was apparently a party piece of his which went wrong while entertaining his brother officers on the ranges. He must have been quite a character.
