Excellent knowledge…..but where are they now?

Apologies but I have worked out how to compress photos hence the flurry of activity….. No prize available but anyone know where these Sherman’s are which I’ve visited recently? Cheers. Simmo

Hello, the famous “Great Escape” prisoner of war camp is just outside Zagan in Poland. Most of the site is now woodland but there is an excellent museum and recreated hut, guard tower and even a small section of tunnel. The route that tunnel “Harry” took is commemorated. Well worth a visit...

Had to pop in for a drink having seen the sign outside. Had a pint…..not grapefruit juice!

I guess we’re both happy then. 😘

I had the same message today regarding some K&C Naps which I was looking for in the “wanted” section. Put “Matthew Barker” into Google and he’s on the scam alert for exactly the same offers of help on a fishing tackle forum in California…..

I’ll keep looking. Didn’t appreciate your referral to the late Queen as “Liz the German” in a previous thread.

Hello, I’m after Na276 (Voltigeur bugler) and NA290 (Helping the Wounded) if anyone has them for sale/swap. Cheers.

Hi, free to a good home to go with your Falkland Display. Approx 28”x18”. I’ll even post for free to the UK, anywhere else at cost.

Hi Tom, happy to help. I didn’t know Iron Maiden did beer but, having had a quick browse I see they do quite a few. Is it the one in the silver box with the cross swords you were after?

It has been a good World Cup for football fans - not sure what this “soccer” is?? :) Great games, shocking results in the group stages - Saudi Arabia beating Argentina, Tunisia beating France, Japan turning over both Germany and Spain and Morocco beating Belgium and going on to the semi-finals...

Hello, I mentioned on a different thread that I was having a ride round northern Spain and Portugal on the bike. Sticking to the country roads - which are an absolute dream - and staying in hostals and having a great time on my Suzuki VStrom DL1000. Anyone else collect toy soldiers and ride a...
