Hello everybody!

Albrecht Niemann's adventures are on hold for a while as I recover from a bit of abdominal surgery which I had on Friday. It went well and I'm recovering, but I'm not in a flying condition for a while yet.

So keep me entertained with your reports, please. The most recent ones have been particularly good reading. smile

Congrats to Abner on receiving the Legion of Honour! He's definitely earned it. And it sure looks like he's already learned to kiss like a proper Frenchman. Thanks to Lou for making all these beautiful medals for our campaign; it wouldn't be the same without them. smile

This example was made by the famous Parisian jeweller firm, Aucoc.
