Andy Neilson and Helen Mok of King and Country will be visting The Military Workshop, in Brisbane Australia, on Tuesday 8 JUNE 2010 to
meet collectors. This will be followed by a dinner and talk.

As they did last year K&C will be providing some free items for all attendees (including partners).

Andy will be bringing with him the painted prototypes of the next Lighthorse and Turkish figures.

The dinner/talk will be held at the ***thorne RSL about 400m from the shop. Cost is expected to be about $39 for a three course dinner (function room cost is paid by The Military Workshop). Drinks extra but at RSL prices (ie. cheap).

Early booking is important as we need to know how many K&C items to arrange and to book the food.

This is a unique chance to meet Andy Neilsen who co-founded King and Country 26 years ago. He is a former Royal Marine, ex Royal Hong Kong Police Officer, PR company owner, newspaper cartoonist, bar owner and all around nice guy.

Another bonus is that Simpson and his Donkey, OzDigger, Howard, Jackaroo and "Ned" Kelly willl be there to answer all the questions Andy does not know the answers to. We are also keeping our fingers crossed that the crazy butcher from Perth (ie. Wayne) will be coming over. Obee has extended his apologies and come up with a poor alibi that involves a trip to Gallipoli, Paris and the London Show (Rob please note !)..

If you would like to attend please contact me by :

Email at brett@themilitaryworskhop.com or by phoning at 07 3855 3566..

Andy will then be going on to Sydney to meet collectors at an event arranged by Peter Nathan. If you want details of the Sydney event please call Peter at 02 9267 5591.

Brett,

Will that be when Simmo and Andy jointly announce the new Pacific range :rolleyes::D:eek:
 
Hi Brad that's a bit harsh.You no Andy likes to do things on his own. If I was not a great bloke I would say you were having a dig at me. Simmo.
 
Noted Brett!:).Obee will be very welcome to join us in the bar in June.

Have a great time Brett:cool:

Howard asked me post this photo of Andy surrounded by two Australian collectors. Maybe one is Wayne and the other Simmo :D

Brad mate,
Or should I say "Mr. Forum". Many thanks for the photo posting. These are three of my favourite K&C figures and I thought I should honour Andy's visit with them in a desert setting. Toburk and Beersheeba joined with a little Scottish flavour. Remind me to shout you a Scotch in Chicago. I hope this brings a smile to everyones day.
Cheers Howard
