Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
Yes, sometimes I feel like I'm one of the guys on 'Storage Wars'. Do you have that in the U.K.?
Tom, That is a nice set. The tag looks very fragile so I'm sure there aren't many of them around.
Hi Mo, we don't get that here in the UK to the best of my knowedge? But we do get "Auction Hunters" which I think is very similar? Buying up the contents of abandoned lock ups.
Cheers, Ade.

Hi Tom, do you know who the maker "EMF" is?
Reason being, I think I saw an ad for them the other day in "UM" magazine.
Cheers, Ade.

Hi Ade,
Yea, they are pretty much the same show. I was watching one last night where a guy found a WWII-era M1 helmet with a Westinghouse liner in a locker he won. He also found a tank periscope, and was amazed at the fact that the helmet was worth more.
Supposedly there is a new show on the Discovery channel called 'Combat Cash', that is about militaria and deals involving militaria. I haven't seen it but I have heard from friends that it's terrible.
Hi Tom, I found the advert. I knew I had seen it recently.
EMF = Erfuter Militareffekten Fabrik
Cheers, Ade.
