Neville and Edward's men-at-arms undercoated. May I be forgiven if I mount King Edward among his dismounted men? I am aware that it wasn't customary.

Back symbols/pictures added to the new Street Wars:NYC gang, and 5 stoats almost finished for Burrows and Badgers tonight.
Slow progress, but one is wearing the Shrewsbury Town 1980-1 home strip as modelled by the rock god 🤘 D. SMALLS.

It's an old and slow horse. His Majesty's just trying to draw shooting away from his loyal followers.

Nearly had  a minor panic yesterday. :-SS

Down to my last full 'Catherine wheel' of Green Stuff......Time to order a load more.
Phone my usual supplier.....They're out of stock, at present.....unless I want to order a 'special' package, which includes a wheel of green stuff and a number of items that I don't personally need, and would never use.
That would have ended up as around £40 after postage.  :o

I'm not paying that for effectively a single reel.

Found a few places on Evil Bay that seem to have stock.....But I don't like dealing with them, after a bad experience with evil bay few years ago.
Quite a few places would sell me 'short strips' for around £8 a pop, which would make it ridiculously expensive.

Managed to find a single reel later, at a lower price than my normal supplier..so I bought that.
Hopefully my normal supplier will have some news about new stock, mid April.

I can get the green stuff 'sticks' for an equivalent price (per weight) loads of places..But I don't like those, as I waste even more than I do with reels.
I'll get some of those in an emergency.

Should have ordered a load more reels MONTHS ago. Didn't even consider the fact that all sorts of goods are being affected by supply problems due to the wretched virus.

Cheers - A Twerp. X_X
