We were struggling for time, so decided to drop the visit to Péronne, because I'd been there before, and go straight to Manchester Hill. That was a pity, because there is a full-size Saint-Chamond - in expanded polystyrene - in the courtyard. It's been there since March last year, and is set to remain until 2018.

Our friend Bryn Hammond saw it some time ago, but didn't alert his chums at Landships II. Tut tut.
