    Re: ARRSE Challenge Coin

    455 arrived quite a while ago. I did report it on this thread, but it still has the "sad" smilie in the summary, so it has obviously been overlooked.

    Thanks again to all concerned in the production and distribution of these great items.

    Re: ARRSE Challenge Coin

    Three coins had a very interesting meeting yesterday, and photographic evidence of them standing on their sides will be posted later, I understand.
    And this you can see is the bolt. The purpose of this
    Is to open the breech, as you see. We can slide it
    Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
    Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
    The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
    They call it easing the Spring.
    They call it easing the Spring: it is perfectly easy
    If you have any strength in your thumb: like the bolt,
    And the breech, and the cocking-piece, and the point of balance,
    Which in our case we have not got; and the almond-blossom
    Silent in all of the gardens and the bees going backwards and forwards,
    For today we have naming of parts.
