Another forbidden romance

Armidale Tactical, August this year.

Here am I at the Queensland Museum open day 1987, I have blurred the others as I haven't asked permission to publish their faces

Having said that a photo like this was the offical postcard of the A7V for many years.

My beloved Mika and I at History Alive 11 & 12 June 2011.

A timeline event held at an 18th century fort (that's old for us!) at the mouth of the Brisbane river - the PzII nicely counterpoints the gum trees and our late war impressions

Ah - the chicken or the egg

The relaxed photo is in front of my group during a lull in a 3 day war over hilly wooded terrain.

The brawl is at the 2 day Abbey Tournament, this year we had 26,000+ visitors I believe.

Sure the internet is impersonal, I d...

OK, first I am sorry you are so jaded by forums, I agree there are a lot of false know it alls and "experts" out there, one very good reason why I very rarely post much. I could go home tonight and copy my Curriculum Vitae, photograph my collection, etc. purely to satisfy your need for me ...

Hi Stig, I won't post pictures simply for the same reasons. Colour refraction works differently on different materials and I am basing the comparison will MY eyes and My tunics. You can never judge these things until they are in your hand, I have spent a lot of money that way over the years so I hav...

I have followed lots of discussions on various forums where people post images to back up the argument that this is the correct colour and so on. I am in the position of being both a reenactor who has in the past owned quite a number of original tunics, etc. and now collects repros - AND a graphic a...

I am keen to buy one too, my original is still ticking but the guilt from wearing it to events is building!

Here's one of me at History Alive, Brisbane, 2008 looking tired and cranky.
