A Wellsian interlude

 Taking the chance to get the guns and matchsticks out on a sunny Sunday afternoon…

Bought at some point in a job lot ( I think) these were lying unused in the shed. I decided that they ought to be given some firing practice. Old , battered and having seen better days ( some might say that of me too) I was interested to see how they performed. The most effective piece, by far , was the small and particularly damaged one on the left. The others need more practice and perhaps a new spring if such a thing is obtainable.

Recommended read on the Home Guard

Picked this brief pamphlet up recently in reprint form. Excellent maps and a splendid narrative along with stirring advice for members of the Home Guard. Well worth adding to your Home Guard books.

Happy Easter!

 

Happy Easter everyone!
