What should it be ?

A day pushing putty around, methinks.

No change there then Phil. I'd have thought dog walking or mucking out horses.

Have fun.

Walk the dogs, Ian ?

Nah.....Just open the back door and tell them to go and run around the fields....(As if they needed telling.... ;D ;D ;D ;D)....All I have to do is try and stop the 'puppy' from herding the sheep.
Mr Back has been whinging a tad recently...So I'm excused poop clearing.  :)

My secret plan to rescue something of the day - while at the DIY store pick up some Ronseal wood filler and explore the tip that I read on the Kallistra web site yesterday that it makes a good basing material ....... And then start some rebasing ........ I think I'd rather do bedroom 2 !

Well I went for the lazy start, just had breakfast at 10.

The Ronseal wood fillermakes very good bases. I've used it on WWI and WWII figures and Lizardmen. You can just put a layer of it on the base, then push the figures in. Then use a cocktail stick to push a little over the edges of the figure's base. It does take quite a while to dry.

Lazy start, still in jim-jams, but will shortly dress, tidy kitchen while it rains. Then later, when it dries up, do my monthly delivery of a local trading mag.

Pretty well, you can also add a bit more water to it if it starts to dry up a bit.
