Thanks for your comments.
All well here i...Hi Lee<br /><br />Thanks for your comments.<br /><br />All well here in Parcent, though like you we have had to adjust to the slightly higher temperatures for a few days.<br /><br />I have been following your blog, and was glad to hear that you were not affected by the recent fire near you. They are also a regular annual feature of living in Spain. We had one about a kilometer from the house a few years ago, and it was amazing watching the planes and helecoptors dropping water on the flames. <br /><br />It was lovely having the family here, but it will be nice to get back to normal. Form them as well I am sure<br /><br />best regards<br /><br />Paulthistlebarrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077298970769942656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-97754405909576170.post-73324005265398828822018-08-09T09:54:50.236+02:002018-08-09T09:54:50.236+02:00Hi Paul,
I can't come up with anything better...Hi Paul,<br /><br />I can't come up with anything better than already suggested, but I do look forward to reading the battle reports in due course, it's a good idea and will give you more scope.<br /><br />Hope the family visit is going well, we are in the same situation and I'm having to snatch a bit of painting time as and when I can.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />Lee.'Lee.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02728400013024811279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-97754405909576170.post-41406400167112017792018-08-08T16:39:18.928+02:002018-08-08T16:39:18.928+02:00Hi Bob
Thanks for the suggestion
This is another...Hi Bob<br /><br />Thanks for the suggestion<br /><br />This is another one that we considered, because it does explain what the series is about. <br /><br />But I was hoping for a one word description which would be more pithy. Having spent so long on it ourselves I suspect that there is no such word.<br /><br />However "Not Quite Napoleonic Battles" and "Not Quite Waterloo" does work.<br /><br />I will put it to "her who must be obeyed" for a final decision!<br /><br />regards<br /><br />Paulthistlebarrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077298970769942656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-97754405909576170.post-37407974264532451002018-08-07T10:13:26.457+02:002018-08-07T10:13:26.457+02:00Paul,

I also like "In the Napoleonic Mann...Hi David<br /><br />I also like "In the Napoleonic Manner", indeed I thought of that myself.<br /><br />But it brings to mind large battles with large battalions, the opposite of what I am doing with my small brigades.<br /><br />I am looking for a cryptic one title that means "Based on" or "Similar to", but which makes it clear that it is not in fact an attempt to recreate the original battle.<br /><br />regards<br /><br />Paulthistlebarrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077298970769942656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-97754405909576170.post-63123978176945361542018-08-07T09:25:26.662+02:002018-08-07T09:25:26.662+02:00Hi Macota
I like "Napoleonish Battles" ...Hi Macota<br /><br />I like "Napoleonish Battles" for the blog title. <br /><br />But it would not work with individual battle titles. For example at present I would use "Nearly Waterloo". But "Napoleonish Waterloo" would not work so well.<br /><br />regards<br /><br />Paulthistlebarrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077298970769942656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-97754405909576170.post-86286164351509609982018-08-06T14:47:41.490+02:002018-08-06T14:47:41.490+02:00"In the Napoleonic Manner" - with a nod ..."In the Napoleonic Manner" - with a nod to Peter Gilder.David Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-97754405909576170.post-59531908901134445622018-08-06T01:10:05.951+02:002018-08-06T01:10:05.951+02:00"Napoleonish battles""Napoleonish battles"Macotahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00552156723199053366noreply@blogger.com
