Hi Polly,

I tell it as it is thats all!  If it were not brilliant, I would be inclined to stay away!

I love the other picture too, how would you like a whole battalion to tackle?  Only kidding!  Thinks!  It would look good in colour though! That was taken in the days when I had someone in uniform and was very addicted to him!  I still am, it will soon be 50 years since we married!

Thanks for your very kind comments, they are so very much appreciated!

And when you have done Rabbit's battalion, how about colourizing a snap of the pebbles on my local beach?

Well Well Well, I would not have believed it at all!

You lot haven't got a very high opinion of me have you! LOL

How could you think that of me JCred!   As if I would!   ;)

Dave dear!  Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit', please 'place your mind on a higher plain, like wot I do'!   ::)

Do not forget the wise words of Omar Kyam any bright spark who wishes to add to this salt in the wound! :'(

'The moving finger writes and having writ moves on! For all they piety nor wit can move it back to cancel half a line, nor all thy tears wash out a word of it'! [I think that the copywrite has run out on that after 1000 years] 

Thanks so much for the offer Polly, it is so very much appreciated, but no thanks!  :-*  I have too much respect for your eyes!

Rabbit B  ;D
