Limbering Up for the Charge
Our embroidery is not an exclusive female club
Not quite anyway. One brave heart in Dublin, Mick Daly, put his name down for Panel #74 The Highland Charge - and won, just as those chargers did in their day.
Seems worthwhile to take a renewed look first at the opposition redcoats in Panel #79 with their muskets ready to fire [just once]. Then an insight into how Mick is getting along .... history records the Highlanders threw off their tartans as they charged, and ran in their undershirts but relax, ladies, they've more clothing to don before they're done.
