Polish airmen in Britain 1940s Sgt Antoni Mentlak on right

I didn't take it that way at all        Sounds very grateful to me!   

I think what Elliven is saying is that, considering what we were given to work with, it isn't too bad an outcome!!     Isn't it??

Sorry! Wrong end of the night to be attempting to use my brain! I've changed it, sadly I can't find a delete function 

[Elliven]

Artognou,

I think you have misunderstood.  I am genuinely grateful that these people have done a good job for me.  The reference to a picture that looked like some kid had tipp-exed it was to the original photo that I supplied.  I was just unable to get a better original and the two copies that were done for me were so much better than I had.  My expression of thanks was genuine NOT sarcastic

[Elliven]

No need to apologise- I understand the way you must have read it but I really am happy with the result.  As long as no one is offended by it, there is no problem and I really am happy with the result

Think I have removed some insignia in error - I couldn't make out if that 'shape' above the medals was supposed to be there or not-  now I have a closer look, I see both have it so it probably was - Beg pardon to Antoni!

[Elliven]

Hello Wiggy

The "shape" is the Polish gapa which is a flying creature the Poles wear like the RAF wear wings.  It is important insignia to flying crew, but for the purposes of the photograph, it is not critical - and I am still happy with it!
