Before we sink wearily beneath the creaking SIG tables we shall raise a glass of Shato Hydrazine and drink a toast to those reprobates who are unable to partake this year.....and yes CC, hopefully, next year will be another story...we will sorely miss your black bin bags. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, no, no........this would be Baldrick's re-branded distilled, stagnant pond water, cunningly flavoured with algae and frog spawn garnished with an essence of working class desperation and disappointment. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be hard to find me, you know, the large, blue scaly betentacled, noisy one with antennae in a buggy.

Something to cleanse the pallet, or scour it off as it will I am given to understand that many modellers in the vicinity of Melchett Towers use it as airbrush cleaner. Well, they did until the metal parts of their brushes started to dissolve. 6 hours ago, LorenSharp said: Vintage deux mille dix-neuf. It takes a while to ferment you know. About as long as it takes a pair of Baldrick's pants to dissolve into the brew, although connoisseurs claim that a pair of his unwashed socks help to bring the full flavour out. 11 hours ago, Bonhoff said: If I understand this correctly - Your antennae will be in a buggy whilst you walk alongside? Not quite. I will be in the buggy and the flag will be down your trousers whilst you limp alongside. As for my antennae, they are a Martian's own private kingdom and I shall defend them with @general melchett's life!
