Title: I relieve you Sir... I am ready to be relieved...
Post by: Arlequín on December 07, 2010, 06:19:12 PM
Folks, just a quick update. Helen Bachaus a.k.a. Tank Girl, has returned to moderate this forum. As many of you will remember, she was the original mod here and briefly handed the ship over to me while she did some other things. I'd like you all to extend a warm welcome back to her!

I'll still be around of course and I'd like to offer my thanks to you all for making this board very easy to moderate over the last year and a bit. You're a great bunch of guys!

:)

Thank you kind folks, Nice to be back and looking forward to 2011.

Thanks very much Jim for all your support an I look forward in assisting where I can.

My interest in WW2 are Japanese, Chinese, USMC Raiders, Polish, Early Soviet, Finnish an Italians.

I look at this that the Polish can be used against the Soviets in 1939. The Soviets, naturally opposed to the Polish (the sneaks), Finnish an Italians. The remainder doesn't need any introduction.

At the moment I'm only wargaming with the Japanese against Michael's Australians. In time the remainder will occur.

I can see great advancements in 2011 for WW2 an I hope you can share your collections on this board too.

Happy gaming and collecting.

Helen

Germans first though, Helen. Remember the old Polish aphorism - business then pleasure.

Thank you, Jim and welcome back Helen!

Inquiries has led us to believe Jim Hale is currently in exile in Paris where he spends his time playing canasta with Jean-Claude 'Bébé Doc' Duvalier.

I believe you can find Jim at 82 Boulevard de Clichy 75018 Paris, France. Home of the Moulin Rouge.

Please, the autograph hunters and paparazzi get tiresome... and if one more photo gets published of me getting out of a limo 'commando', shrunken heads will roll!

Whilst others have doubted it, some even mocked the suggestion, I knew Jim still had the legs for it. Best wishes on the new career path Jim.

Dancing at the Moulin Rouge, it's quite the revolving door there these days.....

Actually I fancy Helen has been immersed in study.

Thanks for your welcome,

Helen

Welcome back, Helen! I'd like to Echo Christopher's feelings. Your and his work make the Pacific Front a tempting wargaming undertaking. Looking forward to your supervision! :)
