About Me

My photo
David
I've collected, assembled, painted and played with toy soldiers for as long as I can remember and I've never seen any good reason to stop and I still can't! As a retired teacher I can devote as much or as little time to my family and then to my hobby as the fancy takes me from day to day. My modelling, painting and gaming are all pretty average if I'm honest, but they all bring me great pleasure, although nowhere near as much as my family and my friends in the hobby do!
