Hi All!
Curt here, reporting from the sunny south of France.

I reluctantly take a break from stuffing myself with pastries, drinking bad plonk and butchering the local dialect to dash off a post announcing the winner of the 'What a Tanker!' prize.
Sid informed me that Lard HQ was seriously stymied in their attempts to narrow the field for their final selection, as there were so many excellent entries, but he cracked the whip and they managed to come to a consensus. Good man, Sidney!
Ken's A9 Cruiser Tanks in desert Caunter Scheme, North Africa
Tamsin's M3 Stuart in Australian service, Papau New Guinea
Jasper's camouflaged Puma in ambush pattern camouflage, France 1944
All beautifully executed entries, well done people!
The winner of the Too Fat Lardies 'What a Tanker!' prize goes to Nick's (MartinN) fabulous Panzerjaeger I (France, 1940). Stunning work Nick, well done!
Nick will receive a £25 gift certificate towards purchases of fabulous Lard Island products. Congratulations Nick!
Thanks again to Rich, Nick and Sidney for providing the prize. I know it helped generate a lot of armour over the three months of the Challenge. I hope we can do something similar for our next time out.
