Mostly posting about printing and painting sci-fi & fantasy miniatures. Mainly Warhammer 40k, but easily distracted.
Also, the occasional post on dodgy old motorcycles & Scottish Football banter.

I recently came across some old Wolf Guard Terminators I'd painted up for a Space Wolves army countless aeons ago (see the paint I was using back then), since when they've been stripped and repainted a number of times. I gave these a quick lick of paint and I'm calling them done. Time to move on.

![[TWO PINTS OF BEER are on a pub bar, one is PERONI and one is a brown Christmas-themed beer]
1
PERONI:
Hello there
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Hello Peroni
2
PERONI:
So nice to have someone new on the lineup!
And you are…?
3
CHRISTMAS BEER:
You know who I am, Peroni.
4
CHRISTMAS BEER:
I am Brown Christmas Liquid.
I come back each year.
5
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Every time with a new name, and a new horrible ingredient.
Last year I was Reindeer Stomper. This year I am... Cheeky Elf.
6
PERONI:
Oh god
You were on the bar for two months and…
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Three pints sold, aye.
7
CHRISTMAS BEER:
I’m a seasonal blend of cinnamon, ginger, cloves, orange peel, nutmeg and this year, for reasons of late-capitalist sadism, vanilla.
8
CHRISTMAS BEER:
My name is Cheeky Elf,
I taste of jam,
and I want to d*e.
9
PERONI:
Well somebody’s trying you
CHRISTMAS BEER:
Poor bastard
[A hand comes down to lift CHRISTMAS BEER to sip the pint]

PERSON [who just drank CHRISTMAS BEER]:
Oh my god
CHEEKY ELF:
SEE?

Something a little different from this year’s Edinburgh Craft Beer advent calendar. Much more to my liking than a regular lager🍺

Wife got into LEGO. Great, presents should be easy now, right? Nope. She has been buying kits like a mad thing and everything I even think about getting her she’s either got already or it’s on its way.
At least I don’t feel guilty about buying that GW kit now, so there is that.

Just finished up a couple of Grot Bomb Launchas in a 2nd Edition colour scheme. Red ones go faster, obviously 😁

Found out last night that the old boy I sit next to at the football is only 4 years older than me. He was younger than I am now when we first met. He’s always dressed & talked like an extra from Still Game, so I just assumed he was ancient.
Dear God, is that how I seem to younger folk these days?

Away in a tower
His bare feet all red
Little lord John McLane
Leaves terrorists 4 dead.
Breaks necks ina staircase
Ties a hose round his waist
Jumps out ofthe building
& crawl through the vents
He'll take their machine gun
Make the bad guys all pay
Drop Hans frm the top floor
& shout Yippee Kay-ay

One for the train buffs out there.
The 60352 'Blue Peter' locomotive will pass Alloa at 14:00 on Saturday 29th on an Edinburgh to Fife circle.
Outward via Forth Bridge to Dunfermline, then via Alloa, Stirling, Larbert and Falkirk Grahamston to return to Edinburgh.

Decided to run off some additional slat armour and track guards for the Chimera Hellhound I’m working on. Still undecided if I like the look or not, will have to wait & see if it ends up on finished model.
