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.

G is for Gulliver, Germany

Well, that's weird . . . I could have sworn on my own life I'd photographed, scanned and Blogged the 'other' Gulliver, but I can't find them anywhere? They're not on the Airfix Blog (Confederates or US Cavalry - they should be on one?!), they aren't on this 'home' Blog, I haven't done the A-Z entry, although it's near ready on the external hard-drive (just lacking shots) and it's not in Picasa, as far as I can tell, so I don't know what happened there?
 
I'm guessing I must have planned the above, probably more than once, to have such vivid memories of doing something I clearly haven't and decided - each time - that as they were on PSR, which they are, I didn't need to? Anyway, to get them in the Tag List next to the Brazilian one, here's something else on them . . . what could have been!


Before the accountant ran off with all the money, they had grand plans for ancient Romans & Egyptians, medieval subjects and nappies! From the original publicity mail-shot.
