Not too windy, down here, youth. ;)

Miserable enough to go....."Oh, pants......we've got to take a load of the MIL's rubbish, over to the 'tip'.....Then go and see the MIL, in 'the home'.....Then go and get Monday's shopping, a day early, to save wasting petrol tomorrow.

Oh...For a quieter life.  ;)

I was thinking that I could give my Trolls some nice Hobbit flesh to eat - provided they can decide how to cook it.

Remember the fate of Bert and his mates in The Hobbit? Better make your mind up BEFORE the sun rises 🙂

Will, thanks for posting - inspiringly neat, but reminded me of my own pile of white metal some of which goes back to.......Anyway I am recuperating from surgery on Monday past,  I considered taking a break in an Armed Forces care home, but with this virus on the loose, will stay at home.  AND paint/base and might even get a game!  :)
