I kinda like this idea but unfortunately it takes so long for me to sculpt something I probably won't be able to participate in many of them.

Some possible topics for future months -

"Loss"

"Solace"

"Kamerad"

"The Greater Good"

"Why?"

"The Eleventh Hour of the Eleventh Day"

"Anachronisms"

"Is there a God?"

"Mothers"

"Sons"

"1914 - It will all be over by Christmas"

"1915 - Coming to Terms"

"1916 - Shouldering the Burden"

"1917 - Will there ever come an end?"

"1918 - Victory / Defeat"

All the best,

Dan

hi Dan,

I like these especially the God one, why don't we pick one for next month?

After the April Poll, the winner or anyone else who would like to put themselves forward for the May topic, can select from the list (if they want). We'll direct them to this post as the lists are a valuable guide , so that we don't "cover old ground" too often.

Is that OK with everyone ?

Up-dated the list, who's turn for this lovely June?

[Landsturm]

Up-dated.

[Earl of Berkhamsted]

Hi Landsturm,

Just a small amendum in the 2009 section please:

August EARL OF BERKHAMSTED "Dawn"

should read:

August SQUIRREL "Dawn"'

Many thanks,

EoB.

Edited. It's sometimes hard to keep track who to give credit for the title. Someone who has suggested it months ago, or someone who actually starts the topic. Thanks for correction.

Updated.
