Scenic Express had their usual Memorial Day sale, and with hundreds of Hittites to base this summer, I took advantage of that to stock up on Tufts...
I also got some roofing sheets for my still-in-progress scratch built Tirolese buildings.
Reading the instructions, I may need to get some special glue to attach these to the roofs.
Needing an extra few dollars on a non wargaming Amazon order to qualify for free shipping, I added some Chinese polyhedral dice sets.
Hard to beat 49 dice for about $12! These should finish replacing the bulk of the losses from The Great Dice Caper.
Not sure I will use the dice bags that came with the set, but who knows?

I wish I had known about that Scenic Express sale as I am a big fan of the Silflor range.
ReplyDeleteAs for the gratuitous Golden Retriever picture; well to my mind it perfectly sums up what has to be the best breed of dog I have had the good fortune to own (even though I have very much warmed to our Beagle and would not be without him now).
Any more of these and I might just surprise the wife with a couple of GR puppies.
The international shipping might have not made it worthwhile for you, though. It was 15% off; a help but not a huge discount.
DeleteMy older daughter has 2 Beagles. They're good, but I strongly prefer our Goldens. Take it from me ONE Golden Retriever Puppy is great; two is one too many. Get a second 2-3 years later! :-)
Yes, I think if I ever bought two home I'd be the one who was shown the door.
DeleteCould be, but... they're so CUTE! :-)
DeleteCute pups! Their concerted focus on the ball is great.
ReplyDeleteI have never tried the Silflor tufts being a dedicated Tajima1 man, myself.
They are retrievers, after all! Water and a ball or other object to retrieve = happy dogs!
DeleteI have in mind to try your Tajima tufts at some point.
Great to hit a sale! The roofing material looks great and there is never enough golden retriever photos!

Thanks Iain, but be careful what you ask for! :-)
DeleteGreat acquisitions; and oh my, I love your doggies! What's more fun than a barrel of monkeys? A regiment of retrievers, of course!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dean! Rory, Zoe, Annie, Maddie, and Brooke would agree with you! :-)
DeleteThat Plastruct roofing looks very interesting! Just need to find a uk stockist now!
ReplyDeleteGreat Retriever pic!
Can't help you there, but I do plan to put it to use soon!
