Just a quick post to say a very Merry Christmas to everyone
following, commenting, reading or just visiting this blog over the year. I hope you and your families all have a
fantastic Christmas Day tomorrow. Thank
you all so very much for your company, conversation and inspiration in 2012.
After a frantic Christmas Eve with the family, I’m looking forward
to sitting down and doing some painting for Curt’s Analogue Hobbies Challenge –
this was the marshaling of my first batch of poilu, plus some suitably French
inspiration, a couple of days ago! Joyeux Noël mes amis!!
Merry X-mas to you and your family :-D
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you too. What a beautiful tree that is in the photo. Dean

Have a great Christmas and New Year!!!!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, we have a Camambert just like that :-) See you have a copy of "The Price of Glory" a cracking read, look forward to seeing the Frenchies with some paint on in due course. I have the Stormtrooper book that you recommended enroute, looked to good to resist.
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil! I'll be reviewing "The Price of Glory" as one of the Verdun books. It's a very fine history and stands the test of time well. Hope you enjoy Thomas Wictor's book - I thought it was excellent.
DeleteAnd a very Merry Christmas to you, as well!
ReplyDeleteA merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you!
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas. Your blog was perhaps the most inspiring I've read this year, and is the direct cause of a large pile of unpainted WW1 lead on my desk at the moment. Very interested to hear more about the French project and further terrain plans.
ReplyDeleteThat's very kind indeed, Sir! I am deeply sorry for the lead mountain. I can only hope that I can help you shift some of that!
DeleteMerry Christmas Sidney

ReplyDeleteA very Happy Christmas to you too Sidney; thank you for all your kind words and support over the year and I look forward to seeing more of your fabulous work.

Happy Christmas from Oz mate. Hope you had a great one, and I can't wait to see what you do with les poilus. I'm thinking that I shall be diggin out my Scarab Frenchies and finally getting some paint on them. Alastair Horne's Price of Glory was a cracking read, (have you read his Fall of Paris?) you'll have to let me know what The Road to Verdun is like..
ReplyDeleteBen.
Thanks so much, Ben. Very best wishes to you both for your return to Oz - I hope the move went well. Please stay in touch as I'll be heading en France very soon with the Blog!
DeleteHope you had a good Christmas Sidney, thanks for all the great posts in 2012, looking forward to a very french 2013.
