REME Lyneham Museum Tour of the Reserve Vehicle Collection

Living not to far from Rge REME Museum and atendining some events with the Calne Wargames club this was a opertunity nor to go and have a look round . Some of the vehicles are rare with only one or two around .But the Austin Champ is still my favoite as my Dad made all the chassis for the vehicle.

British Napoleonic Infantry with new flocked bases

When I started to wargame in the 1970 to cover the bases of the figures, I use model railway sawdust coloured green . Now after 50 odd years thought I better do a up grade on them as they are looking a bit tyred . Decided to do the Napoleonic Infantry first being on open shelfs for the best part of 40 years they get a bit dusty (last 15 years I have covered them in with light paper). Spent more time cleaning them then it takes to do their bases
