      570 Since when have you ever bothered what others think, carry on my dear boy. I will sit at the front please.

      Have to admit I've never heard of this before, how they must have felt when they embarked on the mission !

              Have read about this action. Very exciting read. Wish I could remember where. I'm sure your version will be excellent.

                    Couldn't tell you. As the operation was at night, I understand the ship was painted a very dark grey. I sure as heck ain't going to alter it now.......

                            Ron, I had a look at some pictures of the Campbletown, your version looks just fine. I'm looking forward to seeing how you do this diorama and more if you're planning them!
