Hi Ernst and thanks for your comments.
I have only moved to the Nederlands less than 6 months ago, so most of my collection is stored in some wall units or boxes. The helmets are on top of bookcases, so are the only items on display, though I have some flags in frames and some smaller items on shelves.

I dont really buy big items anymore, mostly just cloth insignia these days, which is a never ending quest and hard to display properly.

Heres a pic from when I used to collect tr period medals and awards.

Hi Ernst,

Yummy cufftitle!! A real nice one.

I've never been in Wales. I've heard only about the beautiful landscape. My wife is often in GB on business trips. For that she is travelling across the country and she's visiting some coustomers in Wales as well.

Hi Ernst,

Wales is full of stunning motorcycle rides! I have a 20 year old Honda and a 29 yr old Suzuki, which is black now.
