Don't you just hate it when you get up to say something really dramatic and your knickers fall down......?

Used to it by now.
A colleague of mine stood up to speak at a tension filled mining warden's hearing and his bowel decided to erupt, violently. as he was wearing shorts, there was a veritable brown torrent all down his legs. I had to take over once the laughing was over. Sadly, I failed to capture it on film.

I recently received a parcel of old Napoleonics from EB.

Amongst them were some recast Austrians painted as Brunswickers.

I thought a would try a quick paint restoration. These are a before and after image.

They'll do nicely, won't they. I'm pleased they've gone to a loving home.

Did Andy do the photoshop?

Awesome. I love your project. I try and comment on your blog regularly but Blogger/google seems to have banned me from talking to people so praise I wish to lavish on people goes into the nether.

I’m am very partial to a Brunswicker. 🤔
