Cowell, he is immortal

Look, another AWI army.
Lee asked me to paint up extra forces for his AWI collection so he can also play 'Live Free or Die'.
Started with British and the grenadiers - all different facings as they were consolidated from units in theatre.

Main British infantry units not far off being done too.

Gareth also gifted me some Gallic light horse, which were utterly beautiful, but were not based. So, in preparation for getting thumped next weekend, I based them up.

First and only time I'll do one of these featuring a real-life personality (as this is only meant as a bit of fun, and not to be seen as wishing bad intent on people).

The obvious winner (in my humble opinion) is Simon Cowell. As he'd just keep sending his legions of employees, or latest pop singers to face off against the paranormal hockey-mask-wearing character, while he jumped in one of his (I'm imagining) many helicopters and flee to a secure and heavily-guarded secret location.

Who Would Win In A Fight Between:

option one: Simon Phillip Cowell (English television personality, entrepreneur, and record executive)



option two: Jason Voorhees (Friday the 13th film franchise)



You decide!

Quote from: paulr on Today at 06:15:59 PMGiven the emu beat the Australian army TWICE, my money is on the emu :D

 ;D

And that was without Rod Hull and Emu. Imagine what the emus could have done with them!

Three musketeer units bulked out.
Five stands across three units, which allows me to free up other stands to make more units (it's a long and very dull story).
The yellow unit will get an extra base soon too.

Some weeks we only get 50% visits from the Royal Mail, other than Parcel Force et al. Certainly not a 6 day service and honestly can't remember when  it was. The post van parks opposite our house, so we know when they arrive, or not, as the case may be.

Did get a visit by the postman, today.

Monday we had a regular post service.

Tuesday the postman arrived in the street, delivered a few parcels to a couple of houses, then left. So no regular service on that day.

Wednesday, today, different postman, but a delivery of letters and small parcels.

We (the street that is) know what the problem is. There's not enough postal staff at the Royal Mail office in Richmond, North Yorkshire; those they do have are swamped with too large a number of rounds and that feature too many addresses. As I said, if it was made official, 'post every-other-day' I'd have no problem. Its the not knowing, when or if, someone is coming that is the frustrating part.
