Well, the comment was that's why I don't enter - buttons!! But yes they are beautifully produced SYW figures from one of my favourite periods. Wonder if Brad has come across Honours of War in that there France.

I'm guessing the answer is "if there is I don't know how" but might it be possible to turn off the "reply" option in those threads?

Well again, as my son put it to me today, the internet has not been going for that long and is not a perfect system. There are still many things about it that confuse me.

Cracking entries in the 20th Century section, but the single base open is brilliant by Martin1914!  :-bd

Absolutely amazing entries  :-bd =D> :-bd =D> :-bd
When I looked at it I wondered which of the Imperial Cavalry Brigades the HQ was for... and why that signaller was only a corporal :o

Is that a head swap or a new hat on the senior German officer in the third entry, the figure is from BP22?

Surely the "Singles" base catergory should only be open to those who are without a Significant other?

This message is not meant  to imply that  he or she, who is without a significant other (of any gender), is in that situation due to His or Her fault or misdemeanour or even mrdemeanour. Nor that He or she is lacking in anyway, or that they are of any less importance  than a he or a she who does have a significant other (of any gender.)

Neither is it to imply that he or she should feel that they need to find a Significant other (of any gender) in his or her social circle.

But that he or she should rejoice in his or her individuality and independance. Until that time when he or she should find a significant other (of any gender) that fulfills his or her needs and desires.

So, wait, this is the discussion thread about the painting competition and NOT the thread for discussing the discussion competition?
