Trades Hall Militia? You know that the VTHC has a not so secret but devastating weapon?It’s the Victorian Trade Union Choir, a group so unmusical, so tuneless and just so generally dire, it can make grown men cry. It’s certainly brought me close to tears on a number of occasions. Fuck only knows why they do’t deploy them against the bosses rather than the workers.Think Cacofonix from the Asterix cartoons and dial it up to 11.
Ah, the old Trades Hall choirs. Any volunteer organisation where willingness is the only measure for entry has to deal with the untalented and unmusical from time to time. But I have to admit, I'm quite a fan of belting out a round of Solidarity Forever while deep in the cups on Labour Day; but then what sort of Union Official would I be if I didn't?
One who works for the SDA?No, that’s a trick answer, everyone knows the SDA isn’t a union, it’s a Catholic glee club.
100 Club 28mm Australian Home Guard project update:With our attention being taken towards other pressing real life problems, we have allowed this project to get away from us. Consequently we are extending the deadline until the end of May.The Pathe News newsreel which brought about this idea can be found here: https://www.britishpathe.com/video/on-guard-home-guard-aka-australian-home-guard/query/Malvern?fbclid=IwAR0VgYOz-YvnlrMtXH1Bk7QGcTIU4m1pX6fB_33s4k1On6RT8-cUSWH6HwcWe can also now announce that our agents in the UK: (https://www.eurekaminuk.com/) and USA: (https://eurekaminusa.com/) can accept pre-orders for these figures, which will mean that postage will be much cheaper. Just send Nick and Rob an email and they should be able to help you.The figures will be 28mm and sculpted by Kosta Heristanidis and will be perfect to fight against our forthcoming 28mm WW2 Japanese. Kosta has just brought us two snipers for you to have a sneak peek at.Our proposed list is below, the number in brackets will be the number of variants. Price will be AUD$2.95 per figure (plus GST if purchased in Australia). The Vickers gun and two crew will be AUD$11 (plus GST if purchased in Australia).1. Home Guard/Ex-diggers with Rifles (6)2.

Our target is to reach AUD$3000 in order to complete the project. If we achieve over AUD$3000 we might "even scrounge up a ‘dummy’ tank". This offer is extended until 31 May 2020.
Put my order in.
I had previously thought about that. I was thinking of falling back on the old 'Milo/Nescafe' tin/Pringles Can combo? Maybe even hit up the lads at Knights of Dice to see if they could do a handy conversion pack?I've been saving photos of heritage town buildings to get ideas of what I could need to make a suitably Australian town, rather than just appearing as a generic Normandy battle.
