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 . . . Stuff!

Apologies for this morning's post, it was pretty thin gruel but I literally had 15-minutes to change plans, stop writing tomorrow's article on Guards, find something else and blurb-it-up, so you got a little toy with a big gun!

Anyway, tomorrow's three articles have 24 images in 14 pictures over three posts and should prove interesting enough to be worth the wait, unless you're TJF, then you'd probably rather the posts weren't there at all, but he wanted it and I've plenty to dish-out!

I had an amusing spell-checker suggestion offered-up by Blogger back in the Autumn!

I found these in storage, as we looked at the stuff Peter Evan gave me back in 2013 (after they had gone into storage), these must have been from Poundland or Pounstretcher back in 2009-10, and the chap with the rope is present - we've seen the other five. While I ought to keep a complete set intact, I fear that by September 17th he will have been dug-out; curiosity killed the cat, but I'm not a cat so that should go swimmingly!
