A trip to Paphos, allowed for some classics indulgence. Oh and sun, books and the odd oozo! Loving the mosaics, 3rd - 4th C. Poor minotaur!

Lee Hughes says he's in talks with Notts County over borrowing Meadow Lane for a retirement game between the Magpies team that won the league and an all-star West Brom outfit!

It really doesn’t take much to distract me from my current hobby projects, but following on from a conversation with a mate I’ve pulled these out of deep storage. Full on reminiscing looking through these! Thanks for yet another hobby project on the list @mathew_gething !

😂😂😂. After three weeks just under 1 million people have had their first jab. 60x3=180. 180/52= 3.46 So, everyone vaccinated by 2024. 🙌

Top hobby mate!
Been a while but did some terrain recently. MDF with a thin layer of green stuff for the bricks, then a layer of DAS clay to give a rounded and uneven surface. Should come in useful for Bolt Action North Africa, as well as modern Afghan (whenever we are allowed to play again😞)

Top class stuff buddy!
Tank from 1st Armoured Company. Went for a bit of stowage on the back, and up armoured the front with spare pieces of track #WarhammerCommunity #Warmongers #warhammer40k #The5thTallarn #New40k

Nero became Roman emperor #OnThisDay in AD 54. This bronze head originally formed part of a life-size statue of the emperor and was found in 1907 in Suffolk, in the east of England. Stay tuned for more news about Nero coming soon! ow.ly/RWVH30rcn4O

Downed German fighter plane. I’ll use it as scatter terrain for games of #BoltAction #Wargaming #WarlordGames #miniaturepainting

I charged forward across my lines, hitting the infantry but were beaten back, I rallied and forced some of the enemy to flee the field but ultimately they proved to strong, victory went to my opponent. Great game though and look forward to playing again with a larger army 2/2

Game of ancients last night. An Imperial Roman civil war! I moved quickly to my right flank, in an attempt to take my opponents width from him. However he’d shrewdly deployed a unit of auxiliaries in reserve, to neutralise any advantage I could gain 1/2

Fancied doing something different, so I painted up a shed from @SarissaPrec ! I don’t tend to do a lot of terrain type stuff but I’ll have to try too, as it was great fun. Probably be used for #BoltAction in the future, or whatever other relevant game I find myself playing!

Next up for my #isolationarmy is a unit of Legionaries. Heavy infantry will form the core of my force as these tough, reliable men smash through the enemy line. Models by @WarlordGames #Wargaming
