I don't usually re-ribbon but in this case I probably need to. The current swing mount is not very stable, and they are sliding off the end! I just need to find silk ribbons though, which tends to take time :)

Thanks David. I do have that picture of him, I think you gave it to me actually a while ago!

Further up the thread someone asked if there was a group with Zulu, Cape, QSA, KSA and Natal out there. I have seen one, Chris Hill of DNW fame was in Australia in 2011 and in a presentation showed such a group. I don't know who it was to anymore, but it was what he called a South African trifecta, covering all the campaigns.

There are to the best of my knowledge a few such groups out there as a detachment of the CMR chaps were sent up to Natal in 1906 to help out in the Rebellion.

Hi everybody
Seeing this thread is active again, I append images of a very good South African group viz. to "Nicholson of Swaziland"
He died in 1942
