I had a bit of a tidy up
I had a bit of a tidy up the other day and rearranged one of my cabinets.
This shelf represents the 1st VB/4th York and Lancs/Hallamshires and other Sheffield units. Its not quite right though. Ivan |

Ivan,
superb! I'm surprised Mrs Ivan lets you have a cabinet in the house and not a shelf in the shed or man cave! My wife said she did not want Military items on display in the house, so I towed the line Andy |

I'm reasonable happy Dave, there's just a few things missing!

It near to the TV so when I have to endure Emmerdale Street or Cowell's Got No Talent, it gives me something to look at while I pretend I'm interested in what she's watching. Ivan PS so does your house have loads of military items on display now???? |

I have to admit I'm quite chuffed with that one!

No,
I got rid of the wife instead as collecting has far more plus points and they don't nag either! Still have not completely got rid of the mound in the middle of the lawn ... As for non military items, I remembered that she was a "Buckshee" I'd acquired during service, so I duly complied with her instructions and sorted out the divorce "Pronto"! A man has to have some pleasure in life apart from carrier bag fatigues and odd three minutes of Egyptian PT when the paracetamol occasionally wears off! But on a serious note what a fantastic display! Thanks for sharing! Andy Last edited by 2747andy; 28-09-15 at 06:35 PM. |

Thanks for the compliments, it is very satisfying to be to just glance over from time to time and admire them. |

Man am I lucky the only rooms in my bungalow that don't have display cases are the bathroom and the 3 bedrooms over 40 at the last count
