NYW French Infantry regt Greder

The first of Richard's French Nine Years War Infantry regiments, now in my collection. Regt Greder who were raised in 1680. They fought in many of the battles during the Nine Years War including Walcourt, Fleurs, Mons, Leuze, Steenkirke, Neerwinden, Charleroi, Brussels and d'Ath . The unitis the German Greder and is not to be confused with the Swiss regt of the same name.
The flags are from Warflag and as per usual the figures are from Essex Miniatures.

Fran the Whingin' Winner

As some of you may recall, I won some very nice, still unused Rosemary brushes from Ian, over on his blog The Blog With No Name. You may also recall that Fran moaned like the biatch, that I'd won them.
So the kind and generous Ian also sent Fran some brushes in the same packet as mine, and said he'd like a few pics when Fran opened his free prize.

   Kick in the crackers it is then!

"I'm so happy, Ian sent me some brushes as well"

Note BigLee stuffing his face and Yes the chap in front of Lee is asleep?
And yes the moaning shitbag IS smiling!!!

"Hmm? What's in the packet"
The other chap is still asleep??

"What the feck"
I think Fran's moaning woke the poor chap up as well?
Look at Lee grinning! he he

"Look at the state of these, feckin brushes!!!"

Fran gives Ian the finger
"I'm gonna fecking kill him"

And here's a little close-up from Fran's blog.

He wasn't a happy bunny

But I thought it was quite funny, it made me and Lee laugh anyway!!
