I have been buying UHU glue there for several years, sadly the tube has gone a bit smaller but still good value at a £1.

Willz.

And a fruity bouquet, excellent when paired with half-eaten kebab and enjoyed with friends behind the bus shelter.

The perfect precursor to orchestrated shouting at random passers-by trying to get home late at night.

Allegedly.

I think you might be overestimating your audience. :

To be fair, I was just going by the number of people on here who possess tabletop phalanxes. I think it's 4, possibly 5?

It hasn't made it towards the top of my reading list, despite being purchased a while ago.
It looks like an examination of tactics, equipment, drill and combat based on multiple classical sources.
Based on the price, don't think you can go much wrong.

Quite a lot of 15mm ECW/TYW and Renaissance 2nd Generation Minifigs. Cleaned out a couple of figure sellers in the US, the results are being looked after by a friend until we can find a mule with a big enough backside; and now almost all of Mr Hinds collection, too (there are some others still in his "warehouse", but I'm not sure if I really need any more cavalry.....).

Mr Taylor is well known in the Society of Ancients. I'm not sure whether he has brought much that is new.

All in one place, has its uses.

Agreed. It also saves on shelf-space!

I looked at it, and then the basket was £60 of books and I left the site. Need to go on with more restraint!
