Sounds like business went well at Telford, didn't it?  ;D

<...> With the way you speak about the appeal of Werner being a Northerner, sounds like you're in the south like my friend, who's over in Bavaria.  I forget where in Deutschland you're from.  <...>

I'm from smack in the middle of Germany (northernmost Hesse, southernmost Lower Saxony), but I feel closer to the Northerners, actually. It seems that the Northerners have the advantage that their accent is considered one of the nicer ones by a lot of people, whereas other accents such as Bavarian or Swabian are less well received by other people. The common view is that the Northerners are more welcoming and that the Southerners like to keep among themselves. Probably a load of bollocks and down to prejudices. I'm pretty sure that Bavarians can also be very welcoming and that there are also enough Northerners who don't like strangers.
Cheers,
Moritz


Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Just like England :p  And all this talk of Bavaria, Saxony and Swabia....its like medieval history!

Dunc - all I have to say is :o  If Mrs Nev complains, I'll show her this thread!

EKFG - to be fair, you did help me with a few Nimrod bits, especially the decals and undercart.

Bloody hell, Overkiller - that's a serious haul! And a good chunk of it resin. I shudder to think how much that little lot cost....


Chris - are you looking for any specific Soviet weapons? If it's bombs/AGMs you're after, I have a load from a Revell (Dragon) Fencer you can have...
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<
