Barra? Excellent! I'm off to rent Crannag Beachside. Plenty of room for painting and gaming :).

I though Barratry was the process of making liquorice allsorts?

Or perhaps shooting people with large calibre not-sniper rifles?

Or where one keeps one's bats? (The trained ones not the wooden ones)

The slimy thing first thought to be Westie and his Zodiac has crawled by, its legs disturbing the slimy sea and lo I see a human form bobbing on the deep green ocean.

You're only pretending to be his friend because he has the bog roll.  :Ph
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

What happened to those armies? I presume they sank without trace, being lead.

The ones in bubble wrap have an even or better chance, I think  - assuming one isn't treading water and popping bubbles (a set up line).

Sorry chaps, I rolled up the bog roll and shoved them up my nose. One in each nostril is helping to keep out the sea water.
[I hope none of you were wanting to use the paper for drybrushing?]

I've currently got an army pack down the front of my Speedos. The bulkiness of the packaging is most flattering - If not making me look a little misshapen!
Best not go into detail as to why I was wearing Speedos on a sailing craft filled with other men  :-t =O

Oh, the army pack. 'Which is it?', I hear a cry coming from the shoreline. Err, Sci-Fi Zombies, but with no human survivors. Hope that helps  :-SS

Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Well I have made it to the beach, only lost one army on the way in. But as I am now off to the castle with Zoot.......I may be some time  ;)
