Well this is the year when my friend Pierre and I began to go in London for shopping . Taking the train from Brussels to Zeebrugge at 20H00, then the boat and again the train to London arriving, according to season with a difference of time between 1 and 2 hours, so arround 08H00 ..
What everything is closed and little shops opening between 10H30 and 11H00 ? So we began with the big shops opening at 09H00 stocking Lasset, Sanderson, Serie 77, Stadden, ....
And NOW : Under Two Flags opened by Jock Couts
and buying, buying with the money we spared during the previous 6 months
to see ou buys packed in this marvelous box
Rose Miniaturs that was so active
Mint making 54mm and 123mm
And Now Men O War 90mm ( allas short range, the young lady who was doing them got married, got chidren and ... so is life ) later the mould will be taken over by Tomker
Phoenix is born and very active, including boxed dioram in vacu-form
Hinchliffe now produce 54mm with full artillery train on the move, 75mm by Ray Lamb and the Momoyama
and kit looked like
Jackboot is there
Serie 77 continue and reissued older range, completely reworked
I'm sure I forgot thinks but I'm poorly documented on 1973
What I also remember is, that I was travelling wtih a caddy, because we went for figurines, but also books and visiting each time " Dark they Were and Golden Eyed" for my comics .. Conan, Red Sonia,
My caddy was full and when travelling back, on the boat I falled asleep in the arm-chair and when I waked up, usualy my friend Pierre had emptyed my caddy looking for everything I bought, opening all the boxes etc ... and ... did'nt repack, all was on the table .
Yes he was like that
