There's a great one that's a pirate ogre, some goblins, a parrot and a monkey with a knife stuck to its tail. I also have a very old and battered Leman Russ (the guy, not the tank) along with some beakies I'm hoping to put on ebay in the new year.

I splashed out this year and got the Wildspire box of 'heroes and monsters' and then my boyfriend, bless him, got me their townsfolk box for Christmas. That's where Keg Orc comes from, and Goblins in a Trenchcoat. They also have Cat King and Guy Just Hanging Around and Armoured Badger. At the rate I go these will last a good long while. I do also have a box of Skaven around. I love Skaven.

Happy Christmas to all you lot celebrating that! I spent the day at my parents and it was wonderful. At lunch we all had our own hand made labels to indicate who sits where and mine had my new name on it. I’ve only recently started living as a woman and that tiny bit of acceptance has made it an amazing Christmas. Hope you all had a great day.

Had Christmas with my partner's friend and her mum who I gave a lift home to, spent a lovely 15 minutes ranting about how shite things are and how incapable our current political crop are to deal with anything. Tiny militant pensioner comrades best comrades.

Miftan posted:And people just believed your family's ancestral home was sauron's tower?? Listen us Irish have a superpower, and it's that as long as we lay on the accent nice and thick and throw in a bunch of "so it is" and "I haven't a baldy" and "give over"s, people from outside Ireland will believe drat near anything we tell them  Also lol that you'd call it Sauron's Tower, because when I was wee sometimes my granny couldn't get off from work at the exact same time I flew over to stay with her so for a night or two I'd have to stay with my auntie Georgina, and her house was RIGHT at the foot of the hill and my bedroom was RIGHT at the back with a big window where those two red aircraft warning lights leered down like a pair of cacodaemoniacal eyes. There was no curtain in that room. Absolute "Can't sleep, Scrabo Tower'll eat me" hours all night long. Ms Adequate fucked around with this message at 01:25 on Dec 26, 2022 |

Merry Xmas all  Does anyone Know A Guy (or Gal) in centralish London or Kent who can fix an Xbox 360. It runs fine but sounds like a jet engine because the paste on the heat sync is long burnt away (afaik that's the issue) I'd do it myself but seems like it's less serviceable than a PC and I'd snap all the plastic bits off and lose all the essential metal doodads. I'm sure there are places to have it done but it's the sort of job I'd rather pay with a nice bottle of Asda whisky or equivalent and not 4 hours labour + parts and VAT

Too late for a merry christmas so i'll just wish everyone an utterly shite Boxing Day. Just nothing but suffering and misery. The weight of the day pushes down upon you and you can do naught but wail. A great sadness to every one of you and your households.

Merry Christmas (and other holidays) UK Goons. Nailed Christmas dinner this year. Made this again: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/chestnut-spinach-blue-cheese-en-croute (Blue cheese, spinach, chestnut en-croute). Plus roast taters, sauteed sprouts with pine nuts, balsamic vinegar and a little dusting of parmesan, homemade breadcrumb stuffing balls, plus multi-coloured maple-roasted carrots and parsnips. Did most stuff ahead of time. Made the En Croute thingy 2 days early and froze it, pre-boiled taters and froze them, cut carrots and 'snips and put them in the fridge in a bag of salted water. Made for a nice easy Christmas day - though things did need to cook for like 2.5 hours due to the amount of frozen stuff and the fact my oven is pretty crap. Thought I'd knackered the taters by boiling them too long - they broke up a fair bit and turned partially into mash, but I said sod it and roasted them anyway. Turns out with adding a bit of extra oil the mash-y bits went *awesomely* crispy, so that was a big win.

Nonce defenders speech in full: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-64091433 Apparently there is such a thing as a society again? Wild! Anyway the king said solidarity, so obviously woke cultural marxists have infiltrated the king's speechwriting team.

The weight of the day pushes down upon you and you can do naught but wail. A great sadness to every one of you and your households. I didn't post yesterday so as not to bring the mood down but this gives me an opportunity to reply in a dark humour sort of way. My dad passed away xmas eve morning, age 87. He was found in bed all tucked up so at least it will have been peaceful. As it was unexpected the coroner has to be involved and because of the holidays it's going to be at least the end of this week before anything can be heard. So much for registering a death within five days. And somehow I got no presents at all yesterday. Not sure if people thought it was an inappropriate time to give things, or if it's just coincidence that I got forgotten by everyone. No need for condolences in the thread - not that they wouldn't be appreciated but let's keep the spirit of the thread up! Now go and give your loved ones a hug. Seasons etc to everyone - you're all good eggs. I don't post much due to anxiety but I do appreciate you all (well, most of you  )And Watch It Burn's post made me happy.

Condolences, Clarence. Bereavement is obviously never easy, but it is particularly lovely at Christmas time. And as a part time poster, all I can say is  Especially in dark times. The worst that can happen is that your posts get ignored, like mine.

You will get condolences whether you want it or not!! I lost my grandma in a similar fashion: around the holidays, all tucked into bed. It was a bit of a shock so it can take some time to seep in. I hope you and yours have a nice festive period despite the circumstances.

Sorry for your loss Clarence. I lost my mum in March this year and this was the first christmas without her. It took ages to get her death registered and then at least a month until a date was free for a funeral. Even though she actually left a will it is still going through the probate court. Things are hosed in this country. Anyway Merry Christmas from a long time lurker! quote:I don't post much due to anxiety but I do appreciate you all (well, most of you

If I'm Prime Minister and a food bank opens up in my country, that's me firing my cabinet, resigning and calling a GE, cos that's me failed. "Failed" as in the phrase "failed state".
