started getting ready for the big day by getting the kids toys opened and wrapped.
not leaving it until christmas eve like the last couple of years.
was becoming more and more frustrated with the little twisty security things they put on toys now and was turning the air various shades of blue when i had an idea.
the little twisty security things are perfect to use as straps for guns. a couple of twists and you can secure pretty much any gun to any character and can vary the length etc.
i have a couple of figs here tooled up with various guns and they look good. just need to paint the twisty things. dont have a camera handy to take pics but these guys look so cool with so many guns hanging off them.
sorry if i'm rambling a bit but not long home from shopping and feeling a bit bah humbug

When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Re: unwrapping X-MAS
neat idea, on the subject of shopping, just received word that my mother-in-law is coming down on boxing day and as she only eats from M&S had to go down to one. bloody bedlam, 25 min queue at the goddam checkout

Re: unwrapping X-MAS
Had to go there today too. Had a similar experience but with this arse eh I mean old dear behind me in the queue nudging me with her trolley every time she thought I should edge forward a centimeter. Got a bit fed up of this end and gave her a hard Paddington Bear stare the final time she did it.Golden Puma wrote:neat idea, on the subject of shopping, just received word that my mother-in-law is coming down on boxing day and as she only eats from M&S had to go down to one. bloody bedlam, 25 min queue at the goddam checkout
