time on my hands at last (6 Viewers)

Robin,
Your Dad, my Dad, lots of Dads and Grand-dads we remember them all today and every day. They were mostly just ordinary blokes but they did extraordinary things so we could be ordinary in freedom. To their sons and daughters, to their Nation they are and will always be our Hero's........LEST WE FORGET THEM. :salute::
Wayne.

A Parliament gun battery prepares to fire. Robin.

Robin..... better watch out for the recoil on this 'beast', I think its a tad too close to the wall, and when it fires, the trail will break before the stones !!!!!

Better 'run if forward' after loading ..... just in case :)

(free advice from an old gunner') :) :)

Robin...I love the Pike & Musket series...I don't think anyone is displaying it as nicely as you do...

Robin,
This may have already been asked. Do you paint your own backgrounds?

Russ

I wish Russ, but alas no, my sister-in-law is an artist. She is currently doing 2 more for me, the big issue is trying to get her to pull back, as she puts far too much detail and effort that is needed. Keep saying I just need some simple landscapes, not works of art which whilst look great, take months for her to do. ^&grin, Robin.
