That's a bit tasty that is!
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Fantastic mate! Brilliant! :-*

Have you thought of adding tufts around the base of the removable palm trees? I say this because I was recently browsing through a great wee thread by Sangennaru and he doesn’t use bases around his scatter terrain as he feels it’s a bit jarring to look at. He puts rocks and tufts and stuff about and it gives a nice, natural look to his pieces.....

Thanks lads. Yes Mark, I'm going to have to do an entire replica set of feudal knights...  ;D

Haha - brilliant  :D

Thanks Andy. I wrestled with this one. Quite hard to work out how to attach foliage at the base of the tree. Especially because they are polythene and don't take glue of any kind a all well. In the end, I went with the ease and flexibility of an unadorned base that I can just spike straight in wherever I need to. Many holidays in the Canary Islands have shown me that palm trees can and do just grow straight up out of the barren ground without a clump of stuff at their base...  8)

Fantastic beards, My Capitan. I will train my strong german dialect for the games and watch some videos of Rommel (he was from southwest of Germany, strange part of our country)
