I've just realised that the Crimea project has been going for less than a year. Astonishing progress. Well done you.

Re: Airfix 1/76 Guards Colour Party
Secondly, I'm rather hoping the rifle will pass for something a bit earlier than the SLR. Having looked carefully at a couple of photos of the set I can definitively say that the sculpting looks very much like a Mk1 Stick. The designers weren't really tied by any adherence to detail. :clappy: Huzza...

Re: Ayton 15th-17th November 2024
Right oh. This is important....... I've had a chat with our leader, Mr Peeler, and we agree that it wouldn't be fair on other potential users of the village hall if we booked the hall now only to cancel later in the year. It's right and proper to have a cut off date for our deliberations so, if only...

Re: Airfix 1/76 Guards Colour Party
Well, given their year of original release, it should (just) be an SMLE. The SLR required a revised drill from the SMLE, mostly being carried at the "Order Arms" position, but the good old "Slo-hopah, Haaaams!" came back into fashion with the SA80. Blimey! I'm older than I thoug...

Re: Ayton 15th-17th November 2024
Thank you Mr P.
That's very reasonable considering the quality of the facilities, and there would be a 'free' game in the Lodge on the Friday.
When do we have to make a commitment on the hall?

Re: Ayton 15th-17th November 2024
Excellent.
I think the conversation with Peeler largely had us booking the hall in the first instant and swapping to the Lodge if numbers didn't meet the required level. The 'decision' one way or the other could be made later in the year (I'm thinking August).

Re: 18thC Shoulder Knot - uniform question
Blimey. They're awesome.
A good point well made. You certainly can't accuse anyone of being a nutter for fine detailing.
