Yep we need to talk Graham. That film is certainly inspirational. The ALH is now my number one series, followed closely by Market Garden, Zulu, Ancient Egypt, Pikes & Musket and finally Life of Jesus. {sm4}, Robin.

Men it's over Commissioner Neilson has retired the regiment. Robin.

Commissioner Neilson may be induced to "rekindle" the line of figures (at some inderterminate point in the future!). The sadder thing is that those beautiful buildings are certainly the last of the series!

In my humble oponion, those 2 buildings and the 3 civilian figures which went with them, were some of the finest items ever produced by Britains.

Who's up for more "Days of the Raj"?

Regards,

Bob

I keep having fun Carlo, but not always historically correct although I do try to get it right. Thanks for your kind words. Robin.

True Chris, but the Brisbane crew's diorama will heads and shoulders over mine, chalk and cheese. Will feel like packing it up in my old kit bag and go into hiding.{eek3}, Robin.
