Martyn,
I just saw the chef on ebay. Did you win him? Maybe part of a larger set, like Caberfeidh used to do? Great addition.

Hi Mike

Not Ebay but Guards Museum.

I thought he would look good in a Xmas diorama.

I always enjoy when you have a little playtime! I am hoping to get some in myself with my new goodies
I knew you would put the hospital to good use!

Please correct me if I'm wrong Martyn but willing to bet you had one very pleasant and great time being able to play with both the newly arrived hospital and the storehouse. I inturn had another fun time picking out where you placed the figures of the sets you listed. One figure which appears in the last photo of the Zulu Warrior on the stone wall with the mealie bags as a base I haven't seen before. Can I say it's another one of Len's special I know he's not one of the HZ wall sets that I know of. Thanks for sharing your playtime with us and once again a super job putting it all together. Not scolding or being picky but I noticed a Zulu Warrior waring a red tunic of a ranker can I say that it's off of one of the defenders that was un lucky for I know you know that none of the attacking Zulus took part in the fighting at Isandlwana and wouldn't have been waring a rankers tunic but he does look great in the photos. 1879 along with Martyn I'm also looking forward to seeing what's been added to your sort after Thropy sets or figures.......The Lt.

A Royal Engineer Company sets it's pontoon into the Tugela River to make a more permanent crossing for the troops of the Coastal Column..
A Big TY to my friend Martyn for making this crossing a reality!
And it is labeled Zulu War Eq33!!!

Mike,

Great set, that is one of the Trophy sets I would like to own one day.
I like the non-combat sets that Trophy made. Thank you for showing it.

Hi Joe

Well spotted with the figures

The other warrior on the wall is from the first INCIDENT AT ISANDLWANA set TD4,I have a spare wall from BD6 and thought this figure would fit perfectly, apologies for not listing that as an extra set at the end

Cheers
