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.
Is this so the missus doesn't find out? =)

How dare you! [...] Yes.
Done that myself in the past.
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 ?
;D ;D ;D ;D
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.
Nice one.

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

What's a Saxon thank?
A Viking who doesn't cut his head off.
How on earth did you change tank to thank?
Sorry, my hearing's not what it was in the late 19th century.

What's a Saxon tank?
While there is a Saxon APC, I was refering to a person of the Gemanic Tribal group who iinvaded England in some 1500 years ago.
However you could tell my better half any tank was a Saxon, a Celt or even an ancient assyrian war machine and she would not query you.
Thanks for that Norman.

That Norman what? Keep? Cavalry? Conquest? :P
Thread not so much derailed as translated to a parallel universe =) :) :-[
On the Saxon theme, it was the Conquest I had in mind - foundation stone of the British class system - batardes - :(
A central European water container.
For creme de menthe Shandy?
I feel like I'm on Channel 5
Are you wearing red shoes?
