I think I know who would be the most scared.
I wonder if thats how Clarence became cross-eyed

2 weeks gone already.
Halfway point chaps
How are we all getting on?

I'm still busy with King Lear...



... but have managed to open the box and push a few bits together. I've taken a couple of photos but they haven't come out well, so I'll try again at some point.

That you on the left is it?!

King Lear, with side-arms ?

[MarkyM607]

Perhaps it's the story of Oberleutnant Lear?

Modern day setting. That's a genuine (deactivated) WW1 mark VI Webley in my holster there. Thing weighs a ton.

Brings back memories of doing 'Antigone' in the sixth form; all cast in white tracksuits, minimalist set all in white with a simple black back cloth.....very stark, but great fun!

I see Winkle Browns medals have finished up in the right location of the Fleet Air Arm Museum at Yeovilton after they failed to reach their reserve at auction.

Here is a link to a good news paper report with lots of excellent images http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... ction.html

Great post with an excellent group of photos in that link.

Nice find Alan; some useful and interesting pictures there (even if the captions are typically a little 'wild'!); cheers for posting!

8 days left to this.
Hows everyone getting on?

[Kitaholic]

Decals going on now, should be ok

[DavidWomby]

Primed. Colour later today or tomorrow. Should be done before deadline.

Hoping to get a fourth one done! (clue included )

Special notice;
Folks, this ends at the end of the 18th, only 4 full days left.

Many of you who are really trying are close, but not close enough to finishing, you may get it done, but its a lot of pressure on you at this time of year.
Various happenings are delaying your works; paint not drying, masking, business meetings, home things for this season

This is a very special GB dedicated to a unique special pilot
Rather than having a load of nearly but not quite there DNFs
Unless John R objects
I propose a long extension to the end date.
Usually if we have an extension it is 2 or 3 days maximum.
I propose we end this at the end of December 23rd
Thats an extra 5 days

I know its much more than usual, but then was not Capt Brown unusual?
To paraphrase an old advert 'Because he's worth it'

Arguments against?
