NO they are not for you! I will post the AAR of Yesterdays game on Wednesday. Currently I am feeling very humbled. I hasve been given a number of gifts in the last 7 days. No My Birthday has already passed this year, and NO hey are not Christmas gifts either. Working from left to right:
A book I was keen on but (so Far) have not read was passed to me by a neighbour, No not a wargamer.
A book Peter from the club bought at a bring and buy stall and at the time I said to him that if had not bought it I would have. Yesterday at the club he passed it to me and reminded me of my words and he gave it to me.
Peter also purchased a box of bits and bobs at the show and the truck was at the bottom and he has no use for it so he also gave that to me. Which is Brilliant as I plan to start some WW2 20mm Western Desert in the new year.
Matt (him I tend to paint for) has obviously seen my blog last week and he passed me some Secret of the Third Reich figures. 3 German Were wolves which suit me down to the ground and as long as I paint the clothes in a dark grey at least 2 of them can be were wolves for half a dozen projects. No Idea what I might do with the US troops he gave me as well. But I am thinking I may paint them and give them back to him.
Finally I have been given 3 Osprey rule books. I am not going to say too much more about these other than I am very thankful and very VERY pleased.
Thanks for popping by to the blog today. I hope you are well and happy and that I can post the AAr on Wednesday.
I apologise for he brevity of this post and look forward to Wednesdays post.
And what a Brilliant hobby we are in!
All the best Clint
What a very generous gift!
ReplyDeleteThanks Joe, several generous gifts I think. And I am VERY pleased.
DeleteWhat a lucky chap!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ray. It is always nice to be thought of by others. And I am flicking through the rules plotting and planning in my head at every opportunity!
DeleteTerrific gifts Clint :-) I'm especially jealous of the "SotTR" minis obviously, but very much looking forward to seeing your paint-jobs on them!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon. I will be happy to pass the American troops on to you IF Matt does not want them when painted. There are only 3 US figures but if It will help and If Matt does not want them I see no reason you should go without!
DeleteThat's extremely kind of you Clint. They would certainly have a warm welcome with me :-)
DeleteNice gifts to receive Clint :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Tamsin I am thrilled. I have already started to clean up the German Radio Truck! (mostly just scrapping undercoat of that has been applied far to thick!
DeleteVery nice. Unexpected gifts are always the best.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lee you are so right.
DeleteI fully agree that gamers are very generous people by and large. I am chuffed for you, mate.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bryan. I am very pleased indeed.
DeleteThoroughly deserved Clint, it is nice that people in this hobby tend to be generous folk too.
ReplyDeleteThank you Andy. There are a lot of nice guys in our hobby. Occasionally I come across a wargamer I do not like but we are talking 2 or 3 in 20+ years.
DeleteIn her majesty's name I know we'll and like a lot 😀
ReplyDeleteThanks Matt I can see me getting sidetracked as I flick through it.
DeleteVery nice enjoy reading them. Look forward to seeing the figures with a splash of paint whatever fate decides there final destination be :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon. I have started on the rules and am ALMOST side-tracked straight away. But there are some SotTR undercoated so I shall start them next! (Barring accidents!)
DeleteIndeed it is Clint , glad you are getting some karma.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave I am delighted with the gifts.
DeleteBut no more Sudan figures this year. (but Probably next year!)
I'm someone who has lived a life seemingly in the background, I must say this final indignity I have suffered almost too much to endure. You see, I have been sickly and weak since the day I was born and doomed to go through all my life a weakling. I seemed to have always suffered from one illness or another and could never play with the other children as I so desperately wanted to. Mother always made such a big fuss over me, also, making the situation worse as the other boys teased me mercilessly after they saw it. I was browsing the internet searching on how i could be transformed into a powerful when i came across the email of a man named Lord Mark. who was a VAMPIRE so I told him that I has always dreamed of becoming a VAMPIRES, All i did was just to follow the procedure that i was been told, and i bet you that procedure I took change my entire life to something i ever desire, freedom, sickness free, pains free, fame, influence, connections and even more that i can. Thanks to Lord Mark. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Vampirelord7878@gmail.com
