Title: Update on the free figures for members
Post by: Nicholas Ball on September 27, 2020, 03:55:27 PM
Hi all,

I apologise for the delay on getting the new St George figure sent out, but as you all realise, the year has been pretty awful and everything is either badly delayed or cancelled all together! :(

I had a message from Benedict yesterday to say that he cast the figures on Friday and he is just sorting final costs for payment etc. Once done I shall organise with Ed and Benedict the best way of getting them all sent out.  Post is still delayed from Germany so I cannot at this point give a time scale when they will be dropping through your letter boxes, but it should be hopefully by the end of October/ earl November

I thank you all for Your patience, it has certainly been a long time to wait, but I hope you feel it was worth it.

I managed to get a sample figure from Daniel when he engraved it and I post the first painted version here to wet your appetite 🙂

Well done, Brian; you're in a league of your own.  And thanks for letting me know 'Bugle Call' has been cancelled, I was looking forward to seeing you and Christine there again in November.  Ah well, maybe next year?

Good evening everyone,

It is with great relief and satisfaction that I have today received the figures of St George and the Dragon from Benedict.

Tomorrow I will check them and then send them on to Ed who will be posting them out.

I would like to thank Daniel, Sascha and especially Benedict for everything they have done for us, to get a really nice figure created for our members,  it is as usual very much appreciated.

Nicholas🙂

I have the figures, and they are all packed and ready to send out. Here in Wales we have a total lockdown until Monday. I will be sending them out next week. I'm sure you will find them worth the wait.
Keep safe
