i remember drinking poshteen with a load of udr boys and nearly going blind/badger

Ah happy memories. A very long time ago on tour in Eire we played against the wild men of Cork Constitution. Whilst the rest of us were singing and dancing our scrum half disappeared for a 'wee taste' of special stuff..........He was hospitalised
What a tour that was, one of our 'old boys' had a metal plate in his head after being blown up by the Mau Mau, his party piece was to stick magnets to his head, jump on a table and sing God Save the Queen.........I think it was in Dublin, possibly the railway union.......minds a bit of a blank.........in fact it's a bit of a blank for the whole fortnight.

Thanks very much Keith, got some more pics to follow shortly.
PS How's your Black Watch fig doing?
Barrie.

Hi Barrie,
Thanks for asking Mate.
He is coming along fine, very slowly at this time of year though.
Came back from a trip to the UK only to have to start work outside on the ranch before we are taken over by triffids...Then my 'mate' ask me to do his as well!!!
I hope to be back on it to finish next week though.
All the very best,
Keith

Del, cheers for your thoughts on the figure, don't think it will be at euro though. As for Gells, will work on him at Perth.

Hi Barrie
for my two penny worth Mate.......
Don't change the face, it's great as it stands.
Keith

 

[BarrieHynd]

Brian and Wings5797, thanks for the input. Advice locked in and the face is getting left as it is. Cheers.

Most of the "Poshteen" now done letting the oils settle for a while before doing any highlights and trying to tackle the design.
See what you all think.

As usual folks all c&c's welcome, good or bad.

Barrie.
