Which means he'll have a VERY sore nose when he gets the use of his hand back and has to catch up on all the Macbeth comments. Sorry, Johnny "sore nose" Macbeth. Ian Oops. Surely he can tweak his nose with one hand? But it might help if you didn't mention Macbeth so much. Do you realise that you mentioned Macbeth three times in that post? That is probably three more Macbeths than he can cope with. We really all must be more careful about using the name Macbeth.

perdu Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 What? A gentleman that mentions Macbeth, yes Macbeth the famous Scottish play known as Macbeth three times in one response? Yes I suppose it must be true that mentioning Macbeth a few times is not necessarily the mark of an absolute bounder, simply the mark of a man with deep and abiding respect for Macbeth the famous Scottish play To be fair Macbeth is a play I have not yet seen performed onstage... I'd love to see Macbeth, must scour the listings at Stratford for any mention of Macbeth 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to know it was worth the effort then .....you'll find it swaddled up in the Jan 2018 issue.....(alongside it's bigger brother, the 1/72nd Squadron fella, wot I also built).

As it happens Elaine and Neville are here for dinner this evening. Elaine has seen this picture and says that should you fail to attend Telford in uniform this year, it will be your forfeit to go round all weekend wearing nothing but these battle pants. (Skid marks optional) Elaine has already worked out how to produce a pair of the pants, you now need to be extremely worried!
