Monday Musings

 




As of press time, it looks like the Monday crew has some nice offering on the menu.  Both Paul and Sylvain have returned from Holidays. Ken,  Ed and Ross are promising stuff too

The Big News is the second months' Minions' Choice Awards as voted on by your esteemed group of Minions and Miles.

In a tie for third we have Kerry's lovely Mercenaries based on one of my favourite history books.


Kerry is tied with Barks and his revolting bunch of local Aussie fauna...(ok apparently they are 40K Gaunts but they look like something deadly from Down Under).


Continuing with the theme of Antipodean critters that you hope scuttle away from you we have Paul O'Gs Crab Bisque.  It's more frightening that a pre-schooler with a Little Mermaid DVD (yes Frozen is more current but it doesn't have a singing crab).


And returning from down under we have the winner, Mr Go Big or Go Home himself KenR and his wonderful 1/700 naval models.


Curt tells me that Kens prize is a 20 quid gift certificate for Warbles (which are parasitic flies) or assuming I’m interpreting autocorrect correctly a gift certificate from Challenge Sponsor Warbases.   Perhaps we’ll let Ken decide which he’d rather.

That's two winners in two months from among the talented Monday crew.

  3. No, Peter you got it totally wrong. Ken gets 20 warbles. I was considering an all expenses paid trip for him to come listen to one of your uni lectures, but I thought he'd appreciated the parasitic flies more. :P

    Enjoy your new batch of MDF, Ken! Very well deserved - wonderful work!

    1. It was a classic Autocorrect moment. Complete with "not warbles I meant warbles".

    2. Yup, autocorrect will be the doom of us all. 'I meant 'lunch' not 'launch'!'
