@wittmann:

Did not see the messge, sorry! Shall I take the nasty Axis next? Can set it up now, then I will go to work.

Did not see your message either - until after I had done Italy. Do you mind me continuing just a fraction longer?

Yes - then if you would take the axis that will give me an oppt to learn from you. Do give me a bid that will make it a challenge for you though witt!

OK Witt. Please make many such mistakes in our game! :wink:

Perhaps I’ll be good enough for the League one day … before I am old and grey …

Had to have a couple of goes at that! Forgot to unload my TTs the first time!

Italian bashing always feels good to me!

After that don’t know. Help to Russia? Or the UK North Atlantic fleet? Which might include a scrambling fighter from Scotland.

Might take a look at a couple of League placements.
