Excited!
My latest Pendraken order arrived just now.  Completely unexpected - haven't even got a confirmation email yet; super-quick service as usual. 
People at work are beginning to notice alarmingly heavy, small brown envelopes being delivered with some regularity.

That's unfair actually.  My (considerably) better other half is very supportive of my little man malady.  Keeps me busy. 
I get stuff delivered to work because I seemed to be spending every Saturday morning at the Postal Sorting Office, collecting parcels that were delivered while we were both at work.  I also enjoy seeing the looks on the faces of people I work with when a hundred or so 10mm metal toy soldiers hit my desk.
It's the little things

Have you tried All-Bran ?
Don't buy your daughters a pony, buy them heroin instead, its cheaper and ultimately less addictive.

Yum! That's the kind of sophisticated humour I've come to expect here...
And anyway, I reckon we've all ingested enough metal filings and paint fumes over the years to ensure our constitutions are robust enough.

That sounded like I was being serious!

Hiding in plain sight is the best method.  My box of unpainted 1:72 Napoleonic British doubled quietly yesterday.

Especially as most significant others do not know a Sherman Tank  from a Saxon. May thier ignorance long continue ;)

If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

What's a Saxon tank?
