Whenever I see Combat's name the words "John Inman" spring to mind. The curse of being someone who enjoys word play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falaise Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I am bald like the back of a hand, injustice makes me lose my hair by handfuls !!! however at that time or in the totalitarian regimes "take the hair of the beast" (expression which I suspect too French which can be translated like: becoming the rule) the Cromwel's wart must be like a fish in water (expression which I think is sufficiently pictorial) I have at least one merit, without having posted any image, it is to be present in the ranking even if it is negative !!!! Courage Vacilllator, light will eventually pierce the darkness. Well the photo of the humbers is superb. Okay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted August 27, 2020 Author Share Posted August 27, 2020 @Falaise You are a great modder, for which I thank you. But I haven't the faintest idea what any of your posts in this thread have been about. You still have two days to boost your ranking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warts 'n' all Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 @DerKommissar Although you haven't quite gotten the hang of the rules, you are actually meant to name the vehicles. You gave us the locations, and you made an effort to find some interesting pictures, so you get the full four points. Well done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warts 'n' all Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Nice try. but it doesn't belong to either 2nd British or 1st Canadian Army. It would have scored you two points in our previous competition as mules can get a bit wild from time to time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warts 'n' all Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 John Martin's Guinness Gold Cup So as the competition closes without anyone grabbing automatic victory by posting a picture of a vehicle belong to the Inns of Court Regiment, we shall have to check the table to find a winner. Warts 'n' all - 15 Points Wicky - 0 Points Vacillator - 0 Points Falaise - Minus 15 Points John Inman - Minus 5 Points PiatPunk - Minus 5 Points DerKommissar - 4 Points altipeuri - 2 Points Erwin - Minus 5 Points Field Oggy - Minus 5 Points 3j2m7 - Minus 5 Poinst Of course having won our previous competition Noddle Head is not allowed to win this one, so our winner is @DerKommissar. And his prize is a hogshead of Elizabeth's St. James Infirmary Stout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
