Mostly posting about printing and painting sci-fi & fantasy miniatures. Mainly Warhammer 40k, but easily distracted.
Also, the occasional post on dodgy old motorcycles & Scottish Football banter.

The Other Half knows what I like.
There was also six litres of resin because I said I didn’t want any more boxes of soldiers. I guess I’m getting a Thunderhawk at some point this coming year 😁

The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

That's this month's #MinioftheMonth sent to @andycruns.bsky.social a little early. I've just cracked a beer and put on some Christmas tunes. Time to kick back and relax.
So, one and all, here's hoping you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and New Year when it comes.

In his first hundred years of business in Scotland, Santa Claus delivered to children on Hogmanay (31st Dec), not Christmas Eve.
By the 1960s, he had fully synchronised his visits and Scotland ran on the same timetable as the US and England.

Trump will never win a war on drugs. It's hard enough to win a war even when you're not on drugs.

If the royal family is such a boon for the nation's coffers, imagine how great it would be for the economy if everybody else got given a few palaces and didn't have to work or pay normal tax.

Scott McTominay’s goal against Denmark, which helped Scotland qualify for the World Cup, has now been immortalised and is on show in the National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh. It’s a cracking image by Ross MacDonald!
