You know, it wa...Wonderful, straight back to 1969.<br /><br />You know, it was the bulk purchase rates that did for me. If I remember they were half price so a fiver would buy a hundred pieces.<br /><br />I spent days working out 20 Guard and 40 line and ten red lancers but how many artillery and where would the Swiss fit in and what were these yellow coated figures about?<br /><br />Then when it was done I would have a crisis and replan for Norman Conquest. In the end I never sent for any figures and spent that long cherished fiver on beer. Probably Watneys Red Barrel. How true that youth is wasted on the young.<br /><br />John<br /><br />PS can we have a shot of the giant paperclip next , please?johnpreecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548014163096067684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7552515511041970563.post-17800115723215274272011-10-02T09:44:50.386+01:002011-10-02T09:44:50.386+01:00Ah ! how cheap figures seemed in those days ! .
