The Loose Association of Wargamers

Mordred and his effing standard bearer. He’s in my painting room. Somewhere. Little bastard.

Tell him there is a crown going begging and Lancelot is the favourite.

Roman shields. There’s a painted cohort lacking the necessary protective equipment and I foolishly put the ziplock bag in ‘a safe place’.

Gaul?

They swapped them for loo roll when your back was turned.

Read that with feeling, did make me chuckle.

Well, I've had a skip around my games room, looking for a dozen bottles of uniform green valejo paint & ten tins of Humbrol gloss varnish in a Toymaster carrier bag, to be used on my newly based Airfix ancients. I remember buying them and going into that room with them.

Can I find them? Can I flip.

Instead, I've found 4 almost full bottles of green valejo covered in fluff, five other tins of gloss in a box, and a larger unused tin of some other gloss varnish. And, lots more Spencer Smith 18thC figures which I didn't know I had.

Sounds like a win to me.
