    ‘Remembering Mike’

    Its actually very upsetting to learn of Mikes passing. They were the first folks I ever purchased from in the US many moons ago. Mostly Conte and other TS bits and pieces. Always helpful and friendly. My thoughts are with Myszka and family........

    Pacific USMC Dio

    I like working with sand. Like snow display's its easy to cover bases and cover up a multitude of sins (screw-ups), plus sand is such a versatile material to play with. I originally was going to use more palm tree's, however most of the WW2 Pacific beach footage show total devastation and...

    Pacific USMC Dio

    Spot the fallen Jap? The palm logs in the foreground hide a concealed tunnel to the knocked out bunker on the left, which is fixed in place and hollow inside. In hindsight I should have made the bunker more collapsed and bomb damaged. The dried foliage is old K&C stock and the dead palm fronds...

    Pacific USMC Dio

    I built this WW2 USMC display a while back, however in my haste to set it up I didn't 'camo' the sides and therefore not totally finished in my view. I thought I'd post a couple of snaps before I remove the figures etc and give the sides a dust off of sand to finally complete it. I can post more...

    iPhone zombies are everywhere. Folks stumbling about glued to their screens, oblivious to their surroundings, it’s beyond sad, it’s an addiction…….

    Things that annoy me

    I was going to start a geopolitical thread about the current state of the world, however thought better of it. Plus don’t fancy getting banned from entering the US for life, for posting something in social media about he who can’t be named. 🤭😂🤪

    I guess the same reasoning is behind the Muslim influx across Europe and the UK….

    Things that annoy me

    Absolutely, AI’s insatiable appetite for knowledge knows no bounds and while currently it simply reflects what information the internet provides, there is growing concern that our tech giants will shortly lose control and AI will reach singularity, as in a point where it exceeds human...

    Things that annoy me

    Thank you for the feedback, its greatly appreciated and not an easy topic to explain, especially given the complex combination of factors that are contributing to it. As an outsider looking in the political divide seems obvious in the US, however by no means is it the sole reason for the debate...

    Things that annoy me

    I don’t understand the whole illegal immigration thing in the slightest, not only in the US, but also across the UK & Europe? It makes no sense. Why would you allow illegal migrates to invade your country, especially those with entirely different cultural and religion. It’s bizarre. Why have...

    Things that I really like

    That’s awesome your brother has stepped up. So often it’s the daughter/s who end up carrying the biggest load when it comes to caring for elderly parents. It’s always great to hear when families pull together with these things.
