I couldn't go to the camera club Christmas social - so I was very surprised when I went to camera club today and found I had two certificates - one for a commended in the Digital Image of the Year and one as I was nominated for another award.
It'll either be Brickstar with that written in a star or Brick Hero with BH on a minifigure. Anyways, most of the pieces will be from LDD, except the gears. The first wave will probably be a Sherman with two rows of 1x1 tracks. I might also sell some "discount shermans w/out tracks. And I'll also have a kubelwagen. They'll probably come with a decaled figure, with ba accessories. Oh, and let me know which name you prefer. And I'll try to get a resellers deal from will for the accessories.

The card was sent from Parker's Hill, Sunningdale, to Mrs Ripley at 49 West Hill, Sydenham, SE26
It reads:
"Please note correct address not 'hill' on the Sunning. Hope you did not get a scare last night we heard guns at 8.30 we thought. Am looking for PC [postcard] later[?] from you - no news from France this morning. Kids are very good an obedient. No idea when the others will be back. Love MaR"
I was hoping someone would be able to transcribe the sender's name, as this is the sender of a large number of the 100+ cards in this album. I'd originally thought it might be Mark or Matt, but EastMarple1 (see comment below) spotted the fact that it was to a Mrs Ripley rather than Miss, and that it could be MAR, the initials of Margaret Adele Ripley. So she was the sender rather than the recipient.

اليوم الفجر كنت اعاني من مشكلة البلاك بيري
الي كل الامة عانت منها
المهم
قلت اطول بالي شويتين واصلي الفجر والبلاك يروح بستين داهية
لما خلصت الصلاة اشتغل التفكير الفوتوغرافي عندي ههه
وتجي عيني على اية الكرسي
لان من زمااااااااااااان كان نفسي اصور التصويرة هذي
واليوم الفجر صار في مجال اني اصورها ونزلتها توا
اتمنى اتقولولي عيوبها
وان شاء الله المرات القادمة اعدل
