More likely 6BC.

However his existence is now unrelated to our year counting.

The first year AD/CE was 1. Before that it was 1BC/BCE.

1st 10 years are 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10.

Ergo all decades start on the x1 year.

Unless you can show me a decade with 9 years in.

That would likely be the 1990s since "everyone" celebrated the millennium in 2000...  :-\ ^#(^

I'm not exactly sure to be honest.  The TB Ancients were the first ranges they did and they tend to be a bit chunkier and a bit taller I think.  The TB Middle Ages stuff matches in great with ours, but I think they'd moved to a different sculptor for those ranges. 

Unfortunately there aren't many Greeks in the TB ranges.  We'll have Republican Romans, Carthaginians, Gauls, Numidians, Iberians, Italics and then one code of Epirotes!

You have Epirotes?

No, I always walk like this.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

So..... :-

Am I six years older than I thought I was, or six years younger ? 8-}.....

No holiday plans this year!  We might try and get a couple of days in the Lakes to climb Helvellyn, but that's about it I think.

That's only if you've got bionic implants, Ian.

I've often thought of taking part in one of the 'Iron man' challenges.  =O =O =O

My own version would be.....

The 2.4 mile swim.......(I could never swim without 'flippers'.....I have a natural tendency to sink.)
Got that sorted by getting in the bath.....That's close enough.

The cycle ride.....Nah...Not doing 112 miles......I might just manage the half a mile towards the village...before there's a hill.

The run ?.....26+ miles......Sod off !.....I reckon I could stagger 300 yards.

Don't.... X_X ;)

At the mo'...I've got Von flaked out, asleep, upstairs, with 'woman flu'....We had a call, early last night, from the care home, regarding her mother...."She's fallen over, and hurt herself....Can you come over and take her to the hospital ?

"No..she simply won't be able to get into our car."

"OK....We'll arrange an ambulance....But can you (Von) meet her at the hospital ?"

Von did......But I stayed awake until Von got back home....I need my beauty sleep, at my age.  ;D ;D

We're both somewhat knackered. =)

There was nothing wrong with her Mother apart from acting like a three year old and a slightly bruised arse.

Is there a "Rust Man" contest?
I don't drink coffee to wake up. I wake up to drink coffee.

The only 'contest' I'd have a chance with, would be the burnt (burned ?)  polystyrene, dipped in acetone event.

(I'd probably still only beat the lowest of the low....And that would be pushing it.)

Cheers - Phil.  ;)

I can empathise.

Had similar on Tuesday.

Mum has dementia so keeps falling over because she can't remember that she keeps falling over if she doesn't use a stick or zimmer.

Got a call to say Mum had fallen and had been shipped off to hospital because she might have fractured her hip.

2 hours by bus there (and the same back) to find she had nothing worse than a small bruise on her forehead and was being helped into an ambulance to go back to the care home when I arrived.

She was fine, I was knackered!

And quite flat?

If anything it was downhill to begin with, then it got quite hard to see much, or breathe...
