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.

M is for More Monopoly 'Movers' - Miniature Metal Marvel Mocherettes

Yeah! Formulaic take on the story of Achilles; Spider-Men, as die-cast statuettes around 28mm for yet another version of Monopoly, I didn't even shoot the box!

That's it, three Spidey's, three enemy (?), the inventor died the other day you know, if you missed the 1000's of column-inches in the press, the hours of TV and Radio coverage, the hundreds of blog posts and the sudden plethora of faceplant memes!

Remember, Judge Dredd didn't fall-in-, get caught in the ray of-, eat, drink, sniff, suffer a spill of-, get shot, bitten- or injected by anything radio-active, diseased, secret or alien - just about everyone in the Marvel and DC universes did!

And they all have an Achillies' heel, kryptonite, "You won't like me when I'm angry" and err, Spider-Man's got fifteen! Dredd just knows he's right!
