Wargamer at Wilkos? UK only

Olive green tablecloth, 6x4. £5 online but actually only £3 in store when I saw them this morning. Very handy.

Very useful, thanks for the tip off.

Wilko have become my regular go to place for 'terrain' items (scouring pads etc.) and various other accessories.

This has quite a heavy woven texture which I didn't like, I bought a bedsheet in the same colour instead.

Hmmm I like that Wilco one. Thanks for the tip. I just bought a single fitted brown sheet for my 'grimdark' future games but I could do with green for the DnD sessions.

Despite my initial comment I bought a tablecloth as well since it was only £3, I might actually get another!

Heads up Gentlemen ...

I walked in for some spraypaint and also came away with a couple of 56/60 scale transport vehicles.

The single decker bus i'm going to lightly toast on the BBQ and the Garbage Bus use as is; both in my Judge Dredd games

There is a nice Heavy Transporter carrying a Steam Locomotive that i was tempted by

They have a wallpaper ( I think it's called premier) in a couple of plain colours which looks perfect to me for cobblestones in smaller scale like 15mm.

Wilkos is a treasure trove for all sorts of wargaming gear, particularly in the terrain category. Reasonably priced too!
