Ongoing child, much too late to grow up now, books, films, toys, pets, music. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇦🇺

Currently Scottish, still undecided whether -5° here is better than 42° in Canberra.
This camera sucks at doing a night-time moon shot, but I CBA going to get the real Nikon, and find the proper lense.

Happy to report that Goodfellow & Stevens now also make fudge doughnuts, in a blatant copy of Fisher & Donaldson

Currently listening to this.. the Iggy Pop version always used to be the last track played at the Dundee Uni 'disco' - just bop and ignore the world.

Another lovely day on the Costa del Tay... it's actually pleasant out, I wandered round the Ferry in just a jumper with the sleeves rolled up.

I'll take that...

Too late for #FestiveTankChallenge but I'm happier with some storage and snow effects on.

While rest of the UK shivers under a blanket of snow, the promised blizzard has failed to arrive on the Tay

What? This isn't normal tongue... why does it look like someone had a go at it with scissors??

Happy Hogmanay everyone, welcome to 2026. That fucker better be better than 2025. And if you're alone and missing someone to love you, may 2026 be the year.

Three slightly different approaches to doing whitewashed & mud finishes.

All right #FestiveTankChallenge I didn't get everything done I wanted to, but mostly done..

Just ate way too much Bouef Bourgignon.. and it was perfect.

Now drinking Scotch and indulging in the secret pleasure that is 'Younger' on Netflix,

It's a comedy of manners with sex, Austen meets PornHub. Lots of doomed romance, mistaken identities, and spurned lovers.

Good fun.

The Tay. Missed the river a lot living in Oz. Pool just wasn't the same.

Anyone got a source for formation markings for the UK 29 armoured brigade? @uk-tank-markings.co.uk ? Did they just retain 11 Division bull when were in the Ardennes?

In an ideal world, someone would have a picture of a 2nd Fife & Forfarshire Firefly VC in winter camouflage.

Exciting times in the drive back from Glasgow, massive tailbacks. No movement for over an hour, then the excitement of a pitch black drive on C roads to reroute through Braco... last time it was an overturned load of live chickens..

Some progress with #FestiveTankChallenge - still unlikely to finish, and the proper decals wont arrive till next week.. but once the winter camouflage is on and mud, they'll look ok

Finally got back to the #FestiveTankChallenge- after too many delays. I doubt I'll make the target date, especially as I have to be in Glasgow all day tomorrow, and there was a complete screw up with the storage.

Had a thought last night and realised that the world turned to shit when businesses stopped making what they were supposed to be making and started making money instead.

Newspapers stopped making newspapers, shoemakers stopped making shoes, etc and they all made money instead.
