Thanks chaps.
And as I was on a Khaki run, I opened up the boxes of BEF I'd started years ago, found a considerable number of partly painted figures and finished them off:

A BEF section:

2pdr support:

Boys A/T rifle support - hey, it's good against cyclists:

HMG support, arguing over where the bullets go:

I won't weary you with more, suffice to say that I finished 3 CoC platoons + various support options (I know, it's rather more than I'm ever likely to deploy, but it's nice to know they are there!):

Nice going John. I have been so tempted to do BEF to go with my Early War Germans, but up till now have been a bit put off by the lack of availability of a variety of compatible figures.

Your Blacker Bombard looks a lot like a Northover Projector

A semi-mobile road block (a few of these 'war memorials' were brought back into service, not armed but as a useful mobile barricade)

You can also use them for the 1940 French campaign - the French had a number of Mark V* tanks, relegated to Gate Guardians that were used in the same way.

Useful to know it can get a look-in to my Fall Gelb campaigns. The Belgians had a specially made metal fence on wheels for the same purpose and I was half-way through making one of those. I wonder where that went.

Belgian gates? Pretty sure I saw a 3d printed model of one somewhere?
