Looks it. Give him a tanner and tell him to be on his way or I'll summon a Constable.

Not a whole tanner - the lad will buy ten woodbines and a bottle of IPA.... Give threeha'pence farthing. At least he can buy himself a fish supper to walk home with.......

Or we could just turn him over round the back of the Dog & Duck.

Turning a young boy over behind a public house? Whatever is this world coming to Mister Jager?
I mean - look how far off topic we've wandered... and I do believe he's still following us.
Quick!
Let's cut through the ginnel and double back past Missus Miggins' we can be back on topic before you know it.
Leave the young whelp wandering the back alleys.... Who knows some roving sodomist may chance upon him and feast upon his ample frame......

Just thought I ought to weigh in here.

The Stug III G at Duxford is owned by Bovington. Its on a long term loan, it maybe externally restored in the next few years, once the new "Airspace" project is completed.

The current debate internally is how best to deal with the Zimmerit. Preserve/remove/restore the missing areas. (Only with approval of Bovvy).

The Panzer IV bitsa is on loan from Kevin Wheatcroft, he got the WaffenTraeger in exchange. Both items still belong to their orginators.
(I know, I helped set up the deal).

The real tragedy was the loss of the JagdPanzer IV from the Shrivenham collection to the Patton Museum in the US. (Thats why the KT was hastily gifted to Bovvy). A long tale of woe and underhand deals that I won't go into here.

David,

Are you saying that Shrivenham is splitting up it's toys, hence the Tiger II to Bovy and the JadPanzer IV to the US

, is this just the start or are more toys about to appear?

If so how much £, $, Yen or Euro's do I need to get out of my kids piggy banks

Andrew,

No not at all. The JagdPanzer IV debacle was a few years ago. But that caused those with influence to make decisions to stop Shrivenham selling?trading historically important items.
