Incidentally, anyone bought anything from Paint & Glue lately? It's three weeks since I ordered and nothing has arrived or any email received. I don't recall it taking this long last time.

I've ordered some Perry Miniatures Afghan cavalry from their Victoria's Little Wars range to mix in with my Indian cavalry from Foundry. Also a pack of French Colonels from their AWI range, one to command Typoo's Europeans, the Voluntaires de Bykli, and two to add to the overall command base for Typoo's army.
There is no point in being stupid if you don't show it!

At least Llandudno has owners. No one is willing to take responsibility for Rhyl.
Which isn't even the worst bit of that coastal strip.... there is of course Kinmel aka Criminal Bay...

Though it does take some balls for someone from Deeside to be throwing shade.... :)

I'm actually in the middle of rereading the first three (chronologically) of the Sharpe series, I'm very keen to see how your work turns out. I've been so tempted by it as a SP2 project. The only factor that has stopped me so far is the terrain thing... a whole new set would be required.

My mates in SA order from them and it’s posted to me, I then send onto them. Currently taking around 4 weeks for order to delivery

Ok. Thanks Jeremy. Nothing urgent, a 88mm, a Marmon Herrington for North Africa and some Italian tankettes. It's not like I'm running out of stuff to paint.

I just ran out of grass tufts, something I normally buy at shows. So I had to search t'internet and found these nice chaps in Wales. So I ordered loads in case the lockdown lasts another year. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

And if it doesn't last a year, you can still buy some more at the next show & have loads. 👍

From eBay - a Warlord laser pen/laser line set (two items) at a bit of a discount. Wanted these for some time.
