Nice pressies indeed Lance - some nice reading there and that fixture looks an impressive bit of kit too  :)

Nothing like a (relevant) present to bring a smile to ones face  ;D

I found that one on ebay. As it's on the basis of the heavy field wagon 95 it should be a WWI piece, too. Anyone outside here who can proof or falsify that? Otherwise I would convert it into a Sanitätswagen 1887, but that would mean a maior surgery that I'd like to avoid. But I read Alexander Moritz Freys wonderful anti-war novel "Die Pflasterkästen" and I must make a model of such a wagon.

I'v just been looking at the recent hauls and it reminds me what a bounteous time this remains for us all. Yeas ago, when. I had a fad for wartime aircraft of the Fleet Air Arm, I used to think, oh I'd love to see state of the then art models of the magnificent Hawker Sea Fury, or the Fairey Firefly. Now it seems I'm spoiled for choice..... Gaps remain in our field but they are gradually  closing up and long may that continue.

Best wishes
Nigel

James,
    That's quite an impressive package you've received, the Brengun PE Set is really good stuff as I found out with my Siemens Build. A quick question, where did you source that neat little paint/tool caddy?
Cheers,
Lance

Yeah, my last splurge for a bit. Lance I got it from Ammo of Mig but looking at their site I no longer see it. If you want it you can have it  I got it just to see what it was about and see if it would be useful to me. Its not quite what I thought and I cant really use it on the dining room table as Chris is giving me grief with the space I have already liberated.
