Now I know why the challenge was so quiet over the summer: you were all saving your entries up so that I had something to do during these long winter nights!

So, another update is needed only a few days after the last one: and both pretty big too.

In no particular order, we have:

• Mr Slade (always Mr Slade!) with forty-eight of the finest Arabs you can order
• Mr Helliwell (and usually always Mr Helliwell too!) submits 32 billmen and pike
• Lloyd "the hat" Bowler has been saving his painting all through those long summer months. Today he sends in about a trillion 6mm figures; more 1/600 ships than the whole of the current British navy (not so hard these days, I know!); and finishes off with some ACW command stands. Almost 500 points in one entry!
• Steve Burt has some more Romans for us to look at
• Keith Davies enters four 28mm buildings, even if I do appear to have lost the photos!
• WillieB makes a bit of a come back with some Frostgravery and some Comitatus
• and last, but not least, Carole takes a rest from her gardening and sends in an assortment of 15mm figures

All good stuff! Now, today's photos...

Keep them coming, folks: the end of the year will be on us before you know it!
