    An excellent start Sir! I do love the ideas of Carols down the bay; here in Blighty tat would be the last place you'd see me at this time of year! Have a good Christmas, Michael.

    Good luck my good man. What is this comp? Is it a blogger thing?

    Looks like I'm well behind already. The Mycenaeans aren't even primed yet.

    Cheers

    Cracking start! I've always liked the Foundry Romans even though they seem a bit small (but hey, they are Italians right?)I look forward to seeing these lads in the coming days.

    I got a good run at my Anglo-Dane command stand at the exchange of some sleep! I'll have my wife make me one of her Shock-Treatment Triple Espressos (TM) tonight so I can grind on.

    I got up early; but that was the puppy!

    Gave me a good reason to paint, cracking into some Napoleonics.

    Looking forward to seeing your Romans- Red shields?
