Scott must be reading the curtain catalogs again. Looks like he got an idea to play interior decorator and changed the color of the forum background! What next, pink lettering? [:D]

Its those Allies. They are so color coordinated. [;)]

And French blue is a pleasant change over Prussian black! Hope the folks in Berlin get used to it! [:D][:p][;)][8D]

Sure I get blamed for things even when I am not around!! [:D][:D] Wow my reputation proceeds me...[:p][:D]

The blue looks purple to me, must be the French Foo-Foo Brigade colors!! [:p][B)][:0]

Interior Design...hmmm a new Prussian novelty!! [}:)]

John is still goofing around with the color. I loved the French blue he had on here before.

Just another crazy Cannuck, Scott, what can I say? [8D] Was surprised that he didnt put Canadian red up here! [:p][;)]'

"Oh Canada ..."

Quick question: did any Canadian unit fight in Wellington's army or for the Empire away from Canada (foreign service) during the Napoleonic Wars?

"And French blue is a pleasant change over Prussian black!"[:(]

Oh, yes, Bill! Over the Prussian black, and over the Austrian white, and what else there...; we have to confide in your rich experience.[;)][:I]
But the science-confirmed fact is: the <font color="green">GREEN</font id="green"> color is the most favourable for our eyes.[^]
So, what do you think, Billy, about the green one? About the Russian green?[:o)][:D]

"Quick question: did any Canadian unit fight in Wellington's army or for the Empire away from Canada (foreign service) during the Napoleonic Wars?"[?]

All the British army's Canadian-origin units of that time (102nd
New South Wales, 103rd Royal Newfoundland, 104th New Brunswick) were too weak for those kind of exercises, and too busy on their border with U.S., in 1812-1815 - particularly.[:(!]
Some Canadian volunteers fought in Europe against the French with 60th Royal American (in their Rifle Btn.)[}:)]
I didn't find any mentions of the Canadiens in Napoleon's army.[xx(]

Ah but Canadian red would mean he planned to join the Brits! A big maple leaf background would be funny! [:D] Of couse an RP forum that I am on for April Fool's Day changed its color to pink and added barney as the logo!! [:p]
