XR2 is a weird first name, (for the other 10%), but then again so is 'out of wedlock'.

Surely only in and around Dagenham? I would have thought "Kebab Van" would be more common.

Why wasn't Jesus born in Dagenham?

They couldn't find a virgin or three wise men. And nobody wants to sing a carol entitled "Away in a Minger"?

This is very niche but I can’t quite believe the Purple Primers Mechanized and Armoured Foundations 1929 and Armoured Formations 1931 have been published on Lulu and I have just bought them both...

As I was doing the dutiful family thing and taking mum in to her opticians, I thought I would check out W.H. Smith and picked up WI, with the 'Never Mind the Billhooks' rules, the first time I have bought a physical wargames mag in at least 5 years. I was almost tempted to buy up the other copy they had.

A bunch of barbarians from Fenris, a box of plastic Greek skellies from Footsore and a Richard 1 mounted and foot figure to fight for the Angevin interests in France (and score me a free Welsh Prince).
I get lockdown, but I get up again.

And now a gross of Warbases bases for Wars (of the Roses).
