Mini Flood

Hey guys while we're not suffering from the rain anywhere near as much as some in other parts of the country (one of the advantages of Sheffield being so hilly) it's still taking its toll and everything's saturated. One of the areas which always floods was getting quite big and quite deep so inspired by the army adverts where allt he soldiers appear out fo the water from nowhere I decided to use one of my guys to demonstrate  





He fell over in this last one fortunately it's an overview shot so it's not really that obvious, still he got to dry off on the radiator with a nice warm blanket afterwards   

   

My little fellas also took their boat out to explore the lake



It may be getting a bit tedious all this wet and not very nice when you're doing conservation work in the middle of nowhere like yesterday morning but, I've got to say there's something veyr satisying about spalshign your way through a puddle that size and depth  

Great superb set of photos great upload,   

Playmobile to the rescue!! Genius photo DD, I'm still smiling!

Nice out and about photos, DD!  

The last photo also brought a smile to my face. I saw some of those 'Playmobil' figures in the £1 shop just before Christmas, I was tempted

Thanks everyone, I took a few photos of my Playmobil men out in the boat and he did actually reenact a rescue in some of the other photos so that I could show him steering the boat with the otboard motor as well as with the oars glad it made you smile.

Thanks I've got some ideas for AM and Playmobil just getting round to taking them plus the weather being so foul, I'd like to post some photos of my Max Steel figures to add to the section for starters

Aye I thought this is a really deep puddle myself but, when you realise it comes halfway up your wellies or upto the waist of an AM it really puts things into prospective still I guess the old saying this is one big puddle for man one giant puddle for toykind!

Max Steel, Great! Max has been neglected for far too long!  

Nice pics. Always good to see VAMs playing in water.  

Looks like your troops had fun, Scott!
