Default Let's put faces to the names !!

After reading a thread that mentioned the Medal Forum I decided to join that too, & found a good thread asking people to put pics of themselves up & thought it was a good idea, maybe we could do the same, then we'd know who to look out for at fairs - or who to avoid !!!!!!! Thought I'd start the ball rolling with a pic of me bringing a Plaque back to a Herts man's grave & sharing a wee tot with him ! Kind of thing us orasot boys do !!!! Come on then lads, don't be shy, you can't be any uglier than me !!!!
Steve (aka Wilf of orasot )

Look blokes, if you're going to start a thread at least make sure it's under the correct heading, please:

It's a Mystery -Unknown Insignia for Identification

Like your style Andy, Classic retort!

Oh go on then,

Not got anything recent on the pc though.

This one is 20 years old, possibly to the day.

Just add three stone, smaller specs( not broken now), and I only wear the hat when I'm out begging!

For those members too shy to post their boat races, and who would prefer an alternative visual representation, here are a couple of free samples:

I think this is quite useful. It links in with the bit about people and meeting them and knowing who they are. As I intimated before, I find it tricky buying from dealers I have never met.
