I've often wondered who the models were for the waxworks - whoever they were, they had some chins! Cheers for the piccies, SP. And I notice neither of us are cultured enough to mention an educational afternoon in the Design Museum :becky:

After handing over 2 signed aviation prints at christmas, one of which had an RAF Russian hurricane pilot, one of only 38 in the war, i felt the need for a treat. This arrived yesterday:
I have some more photos to add here soon. I got some great Christmas pressies. Lots of WW1 POST CARDS, and some Scottish ones from 1900's-1920's. Two R.E ash trays, and R.E Trench Art Stamp Box, WW2 R.E Lighter, A WW1 R.E Cig Case. A Clydebank Jug, with the Clydebank Crest. Oh and a R.E Thimble. I need to buy a big display case now.
I couldn't remember my password for sgt petts :frusty: And couldn't log on, for over a week. I pressed the link for a new password, but didn't get one :noidea: So I re reg as sgt major petts... I should have made it Company Sgt Major, as that is what Grandad was :becky: I should be back as sgt petts as soon as Lee can sort it for me.
You can probably guess that I've been keeping an eye on you so that your 100th post garners the congratulations it deserves!
I have a lot more to learn before I can post on here. Have not been studying for a while, eep: Course starts again on the 10th.
