Superb piece, although "The Naked Windmill" somehow sounds like a Dutch entertainment facility of dubious repute. lol

Today I´ll buy some styrodur-boards and build a table over the weekend.

Is styrodur the name of the insulation foam (pink or blue) that can be bought in any country but Denmark...?

Yes. It´s an XPS polystyrene foam commonly called like that here in Germany (probably a brand name like "Styropor" for EPS).

Too bad you cannot build games tables out of beautiful women and excellent language skills, eh? ;)

Frustrating, actually.... It took me several months to track down foam board (have to drive 100 km to get it), washers are not available in less than 30 mm, game shops only carry GW, Privateer, various RPGs, and LARP-equipment, and that insulation foam that is useable for terrain is not legal...

Oh, and yes, pet shops do not sell plastic aquarium plants, and their supply of aquarium deco is very limited.

Sorry 'bout the ranting - does anyone know of job opportunities in Britain or Germany (our plant here in Svendborg is being closed, and we have all been sacked.. I have 4 months notice)?  ::)

I've had trouble finding plastic aquarium plants in uk shops relly not good.

I'm really sorry to here about your job  :( hope you can find another within your 4 months notice. The world is going to hell...

Can't wait to see how the river turns out :). I concur, a village shot would be awesome.

Oh and Argonor and dodge, maybe some Canadian pet sites could help. I've easily found more variety in plastic plants right in town then I'd ever need in more than one life. Dried plant pods(and other parts of flowers and such) work great for flora as well. Sorry to hear about your job :(. Good luck with finding a future job, my friend.
