Have returned German Tanks, am completing Rhinos.
Allocate A87756006 to me to sub if you like, seeing as I actually work in heritage.

Well, the Rhino one is nearly finished, so yes, I think that's okay.

Thanks, will crack on with them asap. Realise there's been a bit of a wait with the last lot, but had to check a lot of facts in one of them.

Thanks Matt
We appreciate the work the sub-editors are putting into these more taxing Entries. It's far better to take time and do the fact checking. We're just really grateful and appreciative of all the work that you do.

OK I'll take on A87747998. I'll probably have to pester you for advice; for instance the writer recommends the pronunciation 'Hor-mund' which would be pronounced with a conspicuous R by a non-south-east-British reader; should I correct that to 'Haw-mund'? Actually I can consult the author on that, can't I? OK.

True, I should ask Vip again to clarify how it's said. English place names are notoriously weird in spelling and actual pronunciation. I always think it's a trap to see if people are 'not from round here'.

Ready for a couple more, although they all like behemoths...
Chuck me bob stafford's Roman Navy and Roman Eagle Entries, I've subbed bob's work before, and cllaborated with him on other Entries so have a good idea of what will need doing.
