Good evening everyone, we are in the middle of a hell of a storm. It's as black as a Nuns Chuff and it's throwing it down.
Well Astoness has gone away by now. I did warn The Skegnessian civil Defence that she was coming and the said that they were ready for her. She can't cause them too many problems, for one thing there is the language barrier. They won't have a clue what she is saying.

Good evening everyone, I'm a bit late tonight, I was sorting out my soldiers and horses for my Trooping the colour model out of Matchsticks. I have around 200 Guardsmen bodies made. I just have to make the arms and rifles, oh and paint them.

The trouble was I made them from memory not pictures. I have never been in the army.
My Granddad was, he saved the lives of the entire regiment.
