Lots of adverts this issue as hungry traders hope you’ll give them enough business to pay for their Christmas dinners - so buy lots of toys and books -
you know you’re going to be bored come Boxing Day! As usual we’ll wish you Happy Christmas in the January ‘06 issue, out on 8 December 2005!
Our front cover photo this month shows some of John Ray’s fine A.W.I. collection, all designed by John himself. They’re so lovely we’ve also given him
the centre spread. More of John’s collection in future issues. The Chasseurs a Cheval de la Garde lieutenant is painted by Sascha Herm; more of
Sascha’s work illustrates Dave Brown’s Pratzen Heights piece.

Friar
Tuck
and
General
Sikorski,
Robin Hood’s man and Polish war hero
respectively. The latter ‘slept’ in
Newark’s Polish cemetery for fifty years,
and the former (we feel sure) must have
visited Newark alehouses in the 12th
century. (Did we mean almshouses?
No - alehouses).
