er... I think being straight forward is a skill...and something that could be associated towards being honest quite close...seems that would have been a lions den and maybe (if it weren't for the money to be gained there) you will be better off without that lot?...sheesh... what did they expect you to be in an interview... this hypocrisy is awful...people always brag around that they are in favour for truth and honesty but if they get it they get all posh and want to have harmony not disturbed...

I think you may have nailed it

Shame that this was my last toilet roll servitor, as the next league contest is toilet facilities! (-=]_=- Comp Round 10! http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/595454.page)

I have a number of ideas. One is very complex, cool as, but essentially a diorama not playable terrain, involving orks. One is a rather more mundane twist on it for a larger piece of urban (ish) scenery that would be playable. Then there's a kind of monstrous.daemonic toilet maw idea. Really not sure, thoughts?

Little guy is poorly again, ended up at hospital last night with breathing difficulties. Bit Scary but basically ok. Once again I have nothing bit gratitude to out public health services

whut???....how would this supposed to look???


as for asthma... well...there is so many things you could do to cope with it... sure... it is a lifetime burden...but ...it can be managed...

I think if I had such a shop where you could get stuff for cakes in the closer distance... then I'd be all over these cake columns you get for levelled cakes...they´re so amazing Greek looking...

and no wonder that this shop is in the process of shutting down... chucking out codices for such a price is the essence of self owning^^

Okay, okay... I'm not feeling the love for this idea *shrug*

So back to others:
Spoiler:


1. Imperial sewage treatment plant made entirely of cardboard and bits of assorted crap (see what I did there)? Very recycled, not necessarily wow factor.

2. Immensely complex orky diorama (Sweeney Turd's, the demon khazi of Fleet st)? More bits from kits, but could look stunning.

3. Ultra-high tech space toilet (mecha/infinity style)? Really different, not my usual sort of thing at all (and I have no idea how I'd do it!)

I hope the little one is feeling better. I have asthma and its mroe than bearable, as long as we don't have hairy pets and I keep up the non smoking I am fine. If I run and get out of breath its from general geeky unfitness rather than asthma lol.
