Flying out of Brisbane the other day we saw a whole bunch of blokes all cosplaying as their favourite little football guys getting on a plane.

Turns out they *were* the favourite little football guys that all the other blokes cosplay as.

Happy Football Cosplay Day to those that celebrate

Caught the tail end of today's March For Australia in Sydney today. What a crowd of gravel-voiced meth-heads and boomers with IQs smaller than their shoe-size. Representatives of an Australia that deserves to be swept into the dustbin of history.

Some more 1/1200th coastal forces vessels, scratchbuilt from lolly-sticks, matchsticks, card and wire. First are some Siebel ferries (three transport and an AA variant) and then a German destroyer.

Played Snow Tails tonight - the boardgame of sled-dog racing. My wife and I competed against each other and three bot teams. Wonderful game with tracks you build yourself.

Another game of 'Torpedoes & Tides' - British motor launches go to the aid of a downed bomber crew, but the Germans have other ideas.
