It's Games Workshop, you see, and their lovely range of paints. And the magazine this month had a fantastic article about painting your models in just the colours I was considering. So that's this week's utilities, rest of food budget and then some, on Space Wolves Grey paint, copy of White Dwarf and some cracking new models. To sort of justify it the shop I go to has a new manager, and he's insisting you can only play instore with painted models, so I do (sort of) need the stuff.

I am a baaaaaad lady.

Well look on the bright side, those models and paint are a cheap night in. Or cheap nights in depending on how fast you can paint. You can't be an angel all the time.

Love the diary. :beer: :T

Obi,

My OH is soooo into Games Workshop stuff. We have loads he hasn't even opened, let alone painted.

How well do they sell on ebay?

I see that there's yet ANOTHER 'celebs doing stuff' program. We've seen them sing, dance and get stuck in a jungle with Ant & Dec. Now we can see them ride horses. Where's the program where they get to run a household, or juggle a budget? Come on BBC, I want to see Jeremy Paxman trying to make it as a car mechanic, and The Queen changing a nappy.

Ah yes, but here we have the potential for serious injury to Sara Cox mwahahahaha!

spud - doesn't seem to go too badly, as long as he starts it off low enough.

Peach - oooooooh yes, and that cannot be a bad thing. Cannot abide that woman, if indeed she is a woman. Gob like a fishwife.

OH is 37, and he doesn't play, just collects, paints and displays the normal Warhammer figures.

White Dwarf comes out on the last Friday of the month. We have it marked as a don't forget day each month on the calendar

aaaahhhh. Bless him, we basically just dive on poor Jon the GW Guy as soon as he tries to smuggle them in without us seeing them. Only started buying it this month as I want to be able to paint a bit better.
