whilst looking in a "antique" shop in todmorden w yorks today, (wife was looking for an enamel bread bin :roll: ) , in a glass case what do i see???

what looked like original infantry assault badge , a fallschirmjager cuff title for 3rd fj regt , and various other ww2 badges and party items.

i asked the shop owner whos the items were, and just as i did the items "owner" came in, i told him about CIA and to join the forum and post the items on display for sale here, he seemed to think it was a good idea!

hopefully he will post soon, if not, i plan to take my camera and photo the items , just in case anyone is interested

also in the shop was a 1945 issue LT jacket, royal engineers badged for 65 quid, a bit small for me though but in good nick and original, made by some london tailor. its only 10 miles from first and onlys urban site,
just look up todmorden on google maps its right in the centre.

ALSO SAW A BUGLE, and i wanted it, but the wife wont let me :x , im gonna get it when i next go there with work, then ill learn the cavalry "charge" tune, and play it a 6am ever day :rofl:

6AM? somehow i think the missus will take the aforementioned bugle and shove it up your arse if you decide to wake her up with your musical endeavors! :lol:
