Ever since long ago having seen a photo of Airfix 8th Army fighting Bedouin, playing the role of Pathans, in an old Featherstone book I have been…obsessed. Colour photos and a bit of text at: mcmdgames.blogspot.com Thanks for stopping by! Bob |

Great pics and I hope that you can get back to gaming soon as well.
Like you, "real life" is really bogging me down as well.
To paraphrase an ancient thought:
"The soul is willing, but the ability to focus just isn't there these days." |
