les freathy Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 O K guys and gals we are all well into preservation, history research etc on military and old vehicles but we must all have at least one other passion in life besides the obvious so to start this for a bit of fun heres mine and has been since i was 15 years old.

Rick W Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) When Im not running the business... I spend a lot of my time analysing these things. A type of Roman pottery from Gaul called Samian made between 1st century and 3rd century. Most of the stuff I get to look at is in bits, and incredibly small bits at that. I weigh, identify who made them and where they come from. Then compile a report. Mrs W thinks Im barmy-crackers but it beats watching mush on the TV.

ashley Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Well as mentioned be for i always had an interest in modern German Military history (1900 -1945) once being a collector of anything and every thing. A lot of subsections of the hobby have been dropped as prices rose and i sold my cloth badge collection to purchase the jeep,but have still kept the interest alive through helmets(now too expensive and well faked but i have kept them all) and Iron crosses just managing to hang in there with these.
