You weren't tempted to call this one de Barker, and paint up a 20mm one as de Corbett, were you?

Oh, and the coat of arms is in doubt. No one is quite sure whether it's four candles, or fork handles.

Right I'll get my coat...

I think you'll find the correct coat of arms has small cheques on it! :)

Who is no relation to Sir Harold H Corbett, who was well known for stepping on his enemy's toes (think about it...) and who's father was know to all and sundry as a "dirty old man".

This could run and run, couldn't it?
