The Cat has gone! No more "miow, miow, miow, miow, burp, miow". No kitchen minefield in the morning (puke and/or poop). I'm able to open doors and windows without fear of being passed by a pushy wimp.
I have learned that one small cat produced a large number of malodorous whiffs, I prefer cleaning up cold puke to warm, and there are far too many types of feline nutrition.
Now he's gone, and the painting table is out. However, first job is to sort out the small lead mountain that has accumulated during the last few months.

I've also put together a couple of Centurions and am amazed at how large, majestic and reassuring they are compared to the tiny T34/85!

In my sojourn I set up a flickr account, but I can't seem to insert photos. Any suggestions? (and keep it nice!)
I also have a confession to make. I may have suggested in a few posts that Pendraken should produce a T35. A little voice suggested that I could order a Minifiigs version ... or ... well there was something about kneecaps. So, given the gentle remonstrating I ordered some T35's from Minifigs. Firstly, the ordering system there is sub-optimal. Secondly, the amount of flash on the product was awful. This though, makes me realise how good Pendraken are and how fortunate we are to have them.
That's more of a lead hill :P :P
I have bought Minifigs tanks n the past and they are nice but fiddly to build, this was when they were still in southmapton so not sure what there like now
Modern tanks are huge. I didn't realise.
FSN what size is the centurion (track length and width)? I was thinking of getting one but wasn't sure on the base size.
Thanks
Matt
When the centurion came out, FSN was sent the first piece.
Upon receiving the gift from the dark lords, the beggar cried tears of happinnes wich ran all over the centurion. Upon touching the cold hard metal the tears formed under the centurion, lifting it up from the table putting it closer to the undeserving and cured into an eternal piedestal.
The base size is thus entirely dependant on how much you really want the divine centurion!
Poor mistreated cat.

The hull is about 55mm x 23mm. Overall height about 21mm to turret top.
Your cat's got a hull ?? ;)
Cheers - Phil.

Cheers matey.
Mine is going to be based on the one on display at RAF Cosford, looted and recommissioned.
Post a pic when it's done.
Can't have too many Centurions, can we?
Yes.

Looking forward to the pics

Was that the one designed by Picasso in his cubist period? :D
What did happen to the cat?
Our cat tried to commit suicide - it puked or possibly crapped in "my den".
I demanded three good reasons from my partner why I should not kill it. The answers she gave are below
1 Jessica (step daughter) will be very upset. If you upset her you will get no sex from me for a month
2 Alex (other step daughter) will be very upset. If you upset her you will get no sex from me for a month - PS these months are cumulative
3 I will be upset and you will get no sex from me for a month - these months ar :de cumulative.
With three very convincing reasons - The cat still lives - until I can fake an accident or chase it under an oncomming vehicle anyway :d :d :d
Why risk three months of sex, if they can get a knew cat the day after anyway...

I don't want ANY cat in the house.
Cats are cool
Three months of sex - well that's only twice isn't it?
I was only cat-sitting while my ex found herself a new house.

There are exceptions.
TWICE in three months?
You must be winded :O) :O)
Anyone know how to stop the little b ******ds crapping all over your garden? >:( >:( >:(
Orange peel and chilli powder. :-$
No flame-throwers, then? Shame. :d
Get next door to get a sand pit.....They'll use that in preference. ;)
I'm more concerned about dealing with any rats that the chicken feed attracts.....But nicely under control (famous last words) at the moment...Huzzah !
Cheers - Phil.

If
cool expresses approbation, cats are liquid nitrogen.
Which is why you should never touch one without wearing extra-reinforced safety gloves. :D
Cheers - Phil.
they should 'discover' a link between domestic cats and bovine TB. A cat cull would be far more popular than a badger cull. I hate the little b*stards they're really destructive on the local wildlife.
I like dogs and horses and can appreciate they enrich peoples lives, but cats all they do is torture, kill, maim, sleep and sh*t everywhere (except their owners property).
I really hate the little sods >:(
(apologies to any cat lovers - my mom has 3 - I hate them as well)

Dogs are servants, cats are friends. No accident that many dictators have been ailurophobes (or, indeed, illiterates).
I thought it was.....
Dogs have owners....
Cats have staff. ;).
Certainly feels like it from my experience. ;)

Nah. A well-treated cat will make his love very clear. They're just more chic about it that the waggy-tailed barker (sorry if anyone out there is still playing WRG).
Careful - we'll be straying into bestiality territory soon :o

As long as no one mixes this up with the Totty thread I am ok.
Well kick out a dog and it wags its tail untill it starves.
Kick out a cat and it thinks: Fockit bugger I am off to the (cat)pub.
If you kick out a cat it just goes up the road to the other house that feeds it.
