The mighty Pilgrims







After our Tractor muck spreading friend had a dig (pun intended!!) at the mighty Pilgrims we swung into action.
Mike, from work, is pretty handy when it comes to painting little things. He is a Greens man. Alice and I are subbuteo players. Put the three together and hey presto. One Plymouth Argyle Subbuteo team in last seasons colours.
All we need now is a little bit of time and the lads can have a run out. We have about a dozen teams so lots of choice. Mike has three more of our teams to repaint, Man Utd, Chelsea and a made up team. But they will not be up to the standard of his labour of love - the mighty greens!
Unfortunately my camera is crap at close up, even with the close up setting! Got lots of light bounce back. The detail on the players is excellent, except for the hair style which has changed somewhat since these players were made in the 70's!!
Al and Ches are off to see the Moscow State Circus this weekend, so we might have to put off the big game until the following week. If you ever visit we can now offer subbuteo as well as the Wii!
