Happy safe and prosperous New Year 2026 to everyone!

happy 2026 to all !   

Hey Nick, is life so expensive in the UK today?  Hotel at Sèvres, was 90 euros a day (negotiated by the organizers), food is quiet cheap in the suburb, car and gas is like any move on week-end for other purpose, or short vacation.  I don't know anymore how much a club, like AMC has to pay pr teble meter for two days, but not that level you mention, I believe.  Perhaps distance and communications makes distant people forced to spend two nights, so three days out.


It becomes now also harder for a 'continental European' to attend British contests, with the more restricted circulation rules. My wife has a Turkish nephew livong in Edimburgh we wish to visit since three years, but the paperwork to travel is small break to jump on a plane and do it.  We hope early 2026! ..


But I have to recognize that I became lazy too in the site, by not painting a lot during the last 18 months, and my box for contests is empty now !! What a shame. 2026 resolutions are there however ! and a internal challenge would be nice to launch, such as the new BFFS flat, or anothre subject to connect us here also, not exclusively on Facebook....

Thank You very much John. All figures are still available. Size is 54 mm to 70 mm (?). They where drawn up and engraved on the basis of some old 1910ish Christmas Greating cards.They are great fun to paint und I can highly recommend. RegardsWolfgang
