What are people buying?

[FreddBloggs]

Oh come on Donald. Infantry are 1.33 euro a figure. Not cheap, but not outrageous.

I'm frae Aberdeen.

That explains why no one understands you, a mix of Doric and Strain would confuse anyone....

[ochoin]

I don't speak Doric. I was making an ethno-centric point to Dougie.
Lallans is my mother tongue. I can usually follow Strine (not 'Strain' though to speak it you must do this to your vocal chords).
My understanding of it was beaten into me when I first went to school.

apologies on mixing up Doric with Lallans.

Of course it is Strine, fingers doing extra work there.

Not bought but Santa list has gone in.
Barons War rule books
Prussian 15mm flags
Any Greek or Macedonian Xyston DbA armies

I've been banned from wargaming gifts for years but I've conquered the pile sufficiently to be back on the nice list.

I've signed up for another WW2 vehicles kickstarter from Night Sky miniatures. US/Allied Halftracks. Not that I need any more, but you never know when they might come in handy. I might want to do some 1/200 versions for O Group at some stage or something.

I have resisted the Napoleonic figs kickstarter as they are all post 1812, so not much use to me and maybe I will wait for the piano miniatures ones.

I'm strangulated Lallans (mostly beaten out of me) with a bit of Doric, Dundee and Angus Glens, added 2 years Canada, 27 years Strine... who knows what I sound like!

Still unpacking boxes from our house move in 2017
Today I uncovered a complete painted set of figures (plus the rules) of the game Tusk It's like getting things I always wanted but free

[DougM]

Nice! I took four cardboard boxes that hadn't been unpacked since our move from Oz in 2016 up to Targe and sold them.. and got new things. Like Christmas.

The Baroness is a product of Carlow/Dublin (mother) and Western Isles/Glasgow (father). During her 20 years at British Aerospace, her accent was "identified" as belonging to every part of the - forgive me - Anglosphere from Somerset to Rhodesia/Zimbabwe, via Australasia, EXCEPT Ireland and Scotland.
