What colour blue should I be using to paint British peninsula canteen/water container.

 Brian I painted mine a dark blue then highlighted with  GW Hoeth Blue or GW Lothern Blue, can't remember which:

There goes my one per day project. Repaint drummer coat.

Seriously thank you for that information Vodkafan.
Were all British drummer coat the facing colour of the regiments?

[vodkafan]

I believe so yes. The Light Infantry had buglers instead of drummers, their coat colours were not reversed.
You need to invest in a couple of Ospreys Brian

This was not period I intended to do. But someone bullied me into it.
Originally figures my son was given, idea was paint them up and sell them on eBay.

The other problem I’ve found whilst painting them. Can’t get O’er the hills and far away. Out of my head.

That is because.. 'King George commands & we obey'.

Hmmmm....seeing as I was going to paint some Brits next in my Nap box.....I too will have to do the Buffs!

Good work....but I ain’t painting numbers on them!
