Of course Felix shouldn’t have a catapult – that goes without saying – but he made it himself several years ago and has managed to keep it a secret from his mother until now. It has proven its worth in hunting squirrels and knocking down birds nests, and is usually stowed away somewhere in Felix’s trustworthy satchel. I’d had my eye on this catapult for some time and was delighted to pick one up from Mini McGregor’s stand at Miniatura.
