discussion A road somewhere in Crimea 20th March 2014

[takeslousyphotos]

Well I'm calling this finished........ Apart from a frame around the base, and that's being made for me by the cabinet makers next door at work.


Two days after Russia Annexed Ukraine, and in turns out, to everyone's surprise, the "Little Green Men" are Russian after all. Road blocks and check points are all over the border area. This one on a back-road somewhere .......... This lady is on her way to see her sister who lives just the other side of this new border and the little green man has told her "No one is allowed through!"...... But this guy has no idea who he's dealing with...... and she is having none of it. She doesn't care about him, President Putin or this "nonsense" border........ and he is about to find out what a formidable adversary an "Old Woman with an Umbrella is"........ His mates are watching and trying their best no to laugh at their boss, who is losing ground by the minute.............


Your comments "Good" "Bad" or "Indifferent " are always appreciated.

Bring it along and leave it in the car until you see what else is on show. There is a wide range of talents and abilities. You may find it is the only entry in its class so you're sure to win!
