I hope you're okay after handling those lead figures. From looking at the cardboard I can already see little flakes of lead paint that peeled off. Please at least wash your hands after handling them.
Thanks for the advice. I can absoluely assure you that was the first thing I did after handling these guys. Needed too as well. It was pretty grim after handling these guys for a full 8 minutes. 🙂
0.28. Anybody else notice the Roman helmet being worn wrong? I've lived in chichester all of my life, I'm 50 now, and it's so sad that the RMP March and the gala have disappeared...! 😔 A few years after this parade, I was a card man on an Alice in Wonderland float. Lovely vid, thanks for posting.
Moved to Highleigh that year from Surrey recovering from TB we used to watch the Galas from our top windows in our Atkins Bakery in North St watched them for 16 years working there, great film brings back memories of a pint in The Fleece then watch the processions.
Fantastic toons, Mr Ian Sir! Bravo! Being the proud owner of one of your pieces 9signed too!), I am a huge fan. And Matt Jessup's superb music works really well. Great work from the both of you. Smiley : )
Very sad indeed. Should have been listed or something. Had history - I heard that until the fifties it was a satellite school of Eton (or something like that...)
