Merry Xmas 2018


Can't believe its nearly Christmas again, it only seems like a few months since the last??

Wishing all my readers and pals a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
I hope Father Christmas fills your stockings with loads of lead!!


The Christmas card above was sent 100 years ago by one of the First World War’s most heroic tank officers Elliot Hotblack. He sent the simple card from ‘Advance Headquarters Tank Corps’ in December 1917, presumably to his parents in Norfolk.It includes a print of a crewman waving his cap from a Mark IV tank beneath the words “Christmas Greetings”.

  11. I'm late as usual Ray, but wish you and your family a very Happy New Year and lots of painting/wargaming. The WW1 tank postcard is wonderful, have you seen the one in Ashford town centre? My girls used to climb on it and sit on the top, (as did all the kids) while we had a drink in the pub next door! It's still an impressive beast.
