Camera on standby ?

Cheers - Phil.

I have to collect the first batch from Paul at some stage and then base them up first.....so might be a while, though I've got all the labels, bases and flags ready for all 8 regiments.

I'm sure they'll be worth the wait though

Next batch undercoated before a planned late start in the office today

Well......Your  daylight hours are getting longer, now, Paul !

Here.....Almost depressing.... getting up in the dark, and having to switch the outside light on, before the dogs go out for their morning 'bimble'.
(Fair enough...I DO get up at stupid o'clock !)

Cheers - Phil.

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Clocks - in WALES !!

[Techno II]

And YOU haven't got a sundial, I suppose ?

(Tends not to work too often though. )

No, no, no.....Because of the REALLY awful weather in other parts of the world...forest fires..hurricanes..floods....I'm trying NOT to moan about the weather.)

Cheers - Phil.

Na we use a water clock !

[Ithoriel]

It's dark when I go to sleep and light when I get up most of the year .... rest of the year it's light going to bed and getting up.

To be fair, not everyone has the luxury of going to bed between two and four in the morning and getting up between ten and midday.

First two regiments based up - Lord Blayney's and Lord Clanboye's Anglo-Irish pike and shot regiments were part of Monro's combined Scots/Anglo-Irish force at Benburb.

Just need to finish flocking the bases and colour the edges of the flags.

Supposed to be good here for the next few days so I will try and take a few pics once the units are completed.    

[paulr]

That was quick work

[pierre the shy]

That was quick work

All the hard work has already been done....figures painted and labels/flags/bases previously prepared.....just got to put everything together.

I'm bringing back all your plastic bags tomorrow ready for the next lot.
