About Me

My photo
Big Andy
Stanley, County Durham, United Kingdom
I've been in the Wargaming/ Military Modelling/ Military History hobby since 1970 . In that time I've had a go at most aspects including Re-enactment and Black powder shooting. Outside the hobby I like "Old Masters" painting Victorian Genre painting and English Watercolours, Irish and Scottish Whiskies, Fine dining and Real Ale. I also collect Antiquarian Books. I also write, my first two books are now published by Helion My third is currently 'under construction'.
