Everyone needs a hobby - yours appears to be turning bits of tat into looney wargaming models! Although i guess you do need a break from your insane walker project :)

I loved the flying shark by the way ;D

Thanks, Beefcake! Sorry for the momentary cluelessness..

Steharan - who said this is my hobby? My hobby is making cheese and pickle sandwiches and NOT thinking about rivets!

How is Bingley these days? Haven't been back there since I dropped me ice-cream in 1985...
Gluing my fingers together since 1973...

Ahhh Bingley, I could wax lyrical but hot wax really hurts when you drip it on your.....(insert euphemism here!).

The great Carbuncle is still in the town centre (for anyone unsure of what I mean use your Googlefu and search for Bingley images), the park is still the site of the Bingley show (cows and stuff!) and now a rather annoying music festival (wellies everywhere!).

However once I sort out my visa I shall be leaving it all behind to become an honorary Kiwi (Woohoo!)

Why is it that every time I start having fun, people question my sanity and / or use of recreational substances?

Jealousy?

I'm not mad, my friends. Poor people are mad. I am eccentric.

Ah, obviously Jealousy of your ability to gather funds for your projects!

And I spent all my drug money on rivets.

Philosophical question, can you ever have too many rivets?

Gracias,

Glenn

Those are great little critters. Now you need giant a submersible mothership from which to launch them.  ;)
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.
