    .....well yes you could say there was a slight mis-understanding between parties, however Māori did get their own back sometime later when they ate a few stray sailors from HMS Adventure..... :eek::rolleyes::rolleyes::oops:

    By all accounts he thoroughly enjoyed his brief stay in the land of the long white cloud, however couldn't say the same thing about his trip to Hawaii. :oops:

    King & Country Dispatches -- May 2025

    Thanks Gary, yes I'm being very bias here, however I think of K&Cs ALH and other fringe ranges that have become popular over time. Collectors like yourself are are always looking for something different and the Musket Wars during Victorian times down here comes to mind. I live in Tauranga (NZ)...

    KUR010 Ferdinand #501

    I'm mystified why this even matters? What am I missing here? Please enlighten, as I'd like to understand your reasoning and view point? Wartime photos only show a tiny glimpse in time. I don't collect FL due to price, however enjoy viewing their products and really liked their latest Ferdinand.

    ....I often think what UK vets from the Iraqi/Afghan conflict must feel, returning home and finding your country filled with Muslim migrants from that region.

    50th Anniversary of the End of the Vietnam War

    I started watching this series a couple of nights ago and concur its very good, seems balanced and provides insight from many perspectives. The disclosure of 'The Pentagon Papers' was a revelation and helps explain the public's reaction at that time. It was a brutal, ugly war that should...

    Hi Steve, I’m assuming you’re referring to the illegal migration issue in the UK from mostly Muslim countries and how they’re being housed and fed?

    King & Country Dispatches -- May 2025

    Always look forward to K&Cs dispatches...... The Ned Kelly set was a genuine surprise as was the Nelson setting. Have always liked anything nautical. Maybe Andy will one day will dip his toe into the NZ Musket Wars and the battle at Gate Pa and others. Have always thought Māori warriors...

    Are people getting crazier?

    Yes Narcos is a great series and well worth a watch. No you're not old fashioned, you've just been around long enough to be able to compare what things were like 40/50yrs ago. Drug dealers are scum and prey upon human misery and all the trappings of addiction and associated crime. Kick the...

    What are the Forum members reading

    I grabbed this one last week and as expected it’s a grim read, however tells it how it is and I’d highly recommend it, especially to anyone sitting on the fence.

    Are people getting crazier?

    There’s a whole raft of reasons for what you’re now seeing on the streets, some would argue it reflects an overall decline in western society and to a degree I would agree. Our illicit drug culture has been normalised and to a certain degree glorified. In broad terms western society simply...

    Isreal

    Your ignorance regarding the continued bias being reported in the main-stream media (MSM) since the 7th October atrocities says it all, as for the childish insults they just reflect your intellect and under mine your credibility. No one forced Hamas and their Palestinian minions to cross the...

    Isreal

    Sounds like a Hamas political broadcast in the most crudest of forms. You're basically blaming the Israeli's for the October 7th attack as a result of some secret Netanyahu agenda to land grab Gaza. As for your claim about Israeli radicalism like the rest of your post you provide no evidence nor...
