    Just for fun. Today, The Welsh Assembly has ordered a country wide 2 week Lock Down. Starting this Friday.

    The title is not fiction, it will happen this coming Friday. I found out this morning, so I've just spent the last couple of hours 'avin' me some fun.

    Of course, being military, I've had advanced warning from a leaked Assembly Memo, so I took the immediate measures of getting some of my boys off my Rorke's Drift diorama and back home to Wales.

    They've even brought their own mealie bags!

    I've set up a road block as ordered, at the road junction leading to LLanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwIIIIantysilio gogogoch on the Isle of Anglesey. Just in case anyone tries to sneak in via the Holyhead Ferry!

    Here are my 'Taffs' armed and ready for any ' foreigners' who dare to break the rules. :angry::angry::angry:

    This is just for a bit of fun, so please, NO serious posts about 'You Know What'. This is a model making forum - Full stop. Thanks in advance.

    Also, before any pedants' come out from the woodwork, I do know it was an English Regiment defending Rorke's Drift, not a Welsh one.

      Thanks Allen, I'm glad you like this bit of quicky nonesense.

              Bugger. I had planned a rave on the beach at LLanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwIIIIantysilio gogogoch. Anyone want to buy 14 cases of Brown Ale and a load of white pills I got cheap off this bloke in the boozer.

              Brilliant fun. If we can't have a laugh in adversity then we are definitely doomed.

                English 101,

                'ere - Pronounced 'ear', most used word in the English language during the 60s and 70s, - With your lungs full and wanting to hold it in as long as possible, to pass it on to the person next to you, one could not correctly pronounce the letter "H". Hence, 'ere......

                  Gentlemen hold your fire until you hear their dry coughs and feel the heat of their temperatures. No one shall pass...there will be distribution of masks, one to each fellow and keep your distance in the ranks.

                  Novel idea Ron, real English wit with Welsh in the mix. :smiling2:
