I thought I would get in early. What are you guys hoping for in the Nov despatches?
Maybe Ancient Egypt perhaps the new series
 
Im hoping for maybe more Napoleonics, of course more World War II would be nice. :)
 
I'm hoping for a few more WWII winter or late war releases, because we can never have enough!!!!sammy
 
I hope to see some rev war... although it sounded like January would be our best bet for that... Some more WWII would be nice a Tiger I tank... i know wishful thinking... I would like to see some other armor from WWII as well... well that is what i would like to see...

This would be exciting to see next month, but.....I'm guessing it's being saved for the London show in Dec. We shall see. And, I still think it'll be The Gordons and Gurkhas at Dargai. Ha, ha, ha........:D

More crusaders - English longbow archers, and more Saracens - mounted on camels.

MD,
now you know we've been informed that "The Master" himself said that is "absolute bollocks".
Please stop stirring it up.
"Renfield" told me in a text message that it's a few "Ice Cream Sellers" and some "Pasta Munchers" as an expansion set to the Mean Streets of Old New Jersey Town".

Ah, well H., I'm still skeptical and hopeful at the same time about those highlanders...we shall see.

If it would be anything like the streets of old Aberdeen, I'd be really interested in seeing a streets of old NJ series I suppose. :rolleyes:

Great to be hearing from you again by the way, and how are things holding up there in Nigeria?

Will that include a SL of 4000 sets called Jimmy Hoffa's last ride?
 
I wholeheartedly agree with Mike about the Saracens on camels. That would be fabulous! We need more Saracens, to offset the over-balance of Crusaders. English archers would also be great. I read recently that the English longbow had not yet come into its own, at the time of Richard's crusade, but maybe it had already been introduced by that time. Apparently the crossbow was the principal weapon of crusaders for firing projectiles at that time in history. For Saracens of that era, it was the bow. At least that's what I recently read, but who knows. Does anyone have definate knowledge on this subject? I'd be interested in your response.

Half-way through the install/commissioning phase of the assignment Dave. So I'll be back enjoying the cheap entertainment in the "Nasty Hotel - Port Harcourt" in around 9 days from now.
The really funny thing about it here is:-
Every time a certain rampant racist enters the Control Room on this Production Platform to check the status of the production equipnment, around eight or nine Nigerians get up off their seats, begin some kind of sychronised war dance - and start singing that brilliant old AWB song;

"PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC WHITE BOY"
"PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC RIGHT"
"PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC WHITE BOY"
"LAY DOWN AND GROOVE IT, AND PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC TILL YOU DIE"

To general hilarity - as you'll imagine.
Oh, and their singing is quite good actually.
Gonna teach them the K&C corporate song next......;):D:D

Apparently the generally held opinion of the Heid is that cos he can make this equipment work properly in such an adverse climate then he must be somewhat of a past master at Voodoo, Black Magic, and such-like, and ought to be sitting in some Ju-Ju tree somewhere.
Hmmm....maybe they're right, but I draw the line at poking a bone through my nose so's I can look the part as well.

BTW, I have it on good authority from my "Man In The Pub" in Hong Kong that a Streets of Old Aberdeen range is being seriously considered - in the marbelled halls of K&C HQ.

Okay, H. Well I'll take this as a clear cut signal that you are doing just fine down there, then.

We'd love to see some photo documentation of your musically inclined co-workers if it's possible please. :)

Cheers,
Dave
