I was looking for some info on the Battle of Lobositz, fought October 1, 1756 between Frederick the Great and the Austrians and found this site, http://www.wargaming.eu/battlefields/lovosice/index.htm,
of a miniature convention held in Lobositz, Czech Republic, on the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the battle. There are a lot of really neat pictures that I thought members of our club might be interested in. Enjoy.

Good to see you in the tavern sir, I trust you are well. Perhaps you will let one of the Empereor's chosen few join you at your table.

I have to say that large red coat in your post is a little offensive sir. Perhaps you would take it down for me?

Btw the link does not work. I am interested if you have a corrected one.

Best regards

The link doesn't work because there is a COMMA at the end of the link. Remove the comma and it is fine.

Thanks Colin and Ernie for the eye opener and the advice, Ernie, for correcting it. Here's the corrected site address: http://www.wargaming.eu/battlefields/lovosice/index.htm

Colin, it is always a pleasure to have one of the Emperor's finest join me at anytime. Though I appreciate your aversion to the color Red, no disrespect is meant. But as my Regiment wears its coats of RED proudly, you will of course understand why there will be no change to my lads showing them off in the manner that they do. [:D]<font color="red"></font id="red"><font color="red"></font id="red">

I trust all is well with you my friend. I am doing fine and enjoying life with my new grandson. Best wishes as always.
