As it all seems quiet around the collecting scene at present but I thought some of you must be writing your letters to Santa and wondered what items you would most like to find under the tree?
Mine is the Nightingale SEN.
Hi.
That Scottish Registration 'Male Nurse' please..... But anything impossible will do!!
Will.
this is my wee list
1- peace on earth ( 21st century and we still have wars Have we learnt nothing from history?) >:(
2- an end to all animal cruelty no more poaching I thinks it awful that elephants will disappear in my life time as well as many other animals not so cute like the chicken frog and yes I stop all experimentation on animals as well :'(
3- that the "Monarch of the Glen" stays in Scotland :(
4- an end to this never ending sciatica ::)
5 -and yes am still looking for an elusive and rare Edinburgh sick kids and of course the hens teeth that's is the scottish male nurse ;)
Could the Scottish Male Nurse badge be re commissioned to the exact standard at all?
yes as there are many replicas out there and I do know of one guy who does them
Hi Sue
Is that good or bad re the man who does re strikes?
What is the Edinburgh Sick Kids badge you mention?
no they're are really good as long as they're sold as replicas Have seen them on ebay as originals As for the scottish one "mum's the word" ;)

Thanks for the link.
This sold today (but not to me) at £440 plus commission,aprox £548. Some Nice RRC and ARRC went too well above estimate as well as a Princess Christian badge.
Is a better 2017 ....
May I take this opportunity to thank all members and visitors to this site a very Happy Christmas and all the very best for 2017. On a personal note thanks to all for your kind support over the last year which has been a difficult one for us.I am Hopeful that 2017 will see us bounce back and I hope that we have more time to celebrate our love of all things nice! For those of you working over the festive period I Hope your shifts aren't too horrendous and that you still get time to appreciate the important things in life.
Hi.
Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year to all. Like Peter, we too have had something of a testing year but all's well - as I trust it will be for others. All I have to do now is to get the News Page on-line before the year expires and all (the impossible) will have been done! Wish me well!....
As I wish you all...
Will.
