May you be bombarded with emails from "Nigerian princes", inundated with "Brit Method" pop-ups and drowned in cute pet pictures for that title!!!

Waiter, my soup is giggling.

Phew I am sad to see it go but glad you will still be around. I had sudden visions of you being too ill to continue gaming or something bad like that.
The Tea House has been a fantastic resource and inspiration to me, thank you.
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

thanks for the supportive thoughts and good wishes.
The transfer is proceeding smoothly so far.

It is inevitable that some things will be left to rot in the ether. Obviously I'm transferring everything I think is important but some of the third party stuff, articles on other people's work for instance, are being left until last so if there's anything you particularly want to be kept around please let me know.

Some of my projects that never ultimately got anywhere will also be left behind too.

I do have some interesting new stuff to post but everything is being delayed because of the time constraints placed on the transfer and the need to spend as much of my limited time as possible on getting it done. Plains Indians, Vikings and 3D printing are all waiting in the wings of the new site and I'll get to them as soon as time permits.

New today:
All the sculpting articles have been transferred

At least you resisted the "One weird trick" title.  Hope the transfer goes smoothly all the way through.

Don't envy you on this one mate, I've been trying to update germy.co.uk for 6 months, and it's tedious as hell!

But glad to see you are maintaining your site and still producing new content  8)

It's not so bad at the moment but as time goes on I can see the list of what I leave behind getting longer as the will to live leaves me :)
Have you updated your link to my site?

Yes it's just stopped me from adding stuff. Just a temporary outage I believe. Try again in a few minutes.

Another sigh of relief from me that you shall be continuing to run a site.   :). I have really enjoyed your Boxer Rebellion section, and your Crossfire one.  And your 28mm Crossfire US and German sets that I bought from you around 4-5 years ago still enjoy doing great service on my games table!  (They send their best wishes to you BTW  ;)).

Thanks, it's good to know they're still getting used.
