I echo David's comments. Is it possible that 'your cup runneth over' this week?

You could say that Brett - especially after this little lot arrived in yesterday's post :lol: by the way let it never be said that the SA Post Office doesn't deliver - this group was posted on 3 June and got her on 14 June - less than 2 weeks!

Medals are to Arthur Frederick Bedggood - why did I buy them? Who could resist with a name like that!

Very nice Rory, is the reverse of the star engraved, I take it that it has the date letter A?

Hello Rory

Two very nice groups there, well done.

On Stewart - WO100 and WO127 show his first name as "Andrew"; did he change his name or is this a persistent error in the ABW records?
