Attach a big chunk of chain to it and give it to her for Christmas..I'm sure every woman would be pleased with a new necklace..
Merry Christmas.

A lovely basis for a restoration, did it come over from Canada recently or has it been in the uk since the war?
NB: just watched the video so I have my answer!

Hi, Latest Carrier back from the blasters Mk1 1941, this is one of the buried carriers under 'Buried Mk 1 Bren carrier restoration' thread and the one which arrived Christmas last year, got to put on a couple more undercoats then a top coat of Light Stone before putting it in storage.

Picture added of this carrier as found!.
