About Me

No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

News, Views Etc . . . Micro-machines

The update I flagged the other day has gone in . . .

. . . with updated images and/or text-box screen-capcha's to provisionally numbered figures 6, 10, 13 and 24 and actual numbered figures 28, 31, 32, 34, 36, 43, 60 and 65. It's starting to look like there was a set of sequentially numbered brown-based figures in sand or grey plastic to match the previous unnumbered sets from the mid-1990's, and a whole crossover set in navy uniforms with numbered and unnumbered bases. It's all on-line somewhere, and I'll write-it up one day, but for now it's not a priority, however the image updates are here.
