EDIT: And for those that love country houses and their grounds as well as castles, we also have a number of them in the surrounding area, most noteably Chatsworth House.

Men\'s Rules
-------------------------
1. Men are NOT mind readers.
2. Learn to work the toilet seat. You\'re a big girl. If it\'s up,
put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don\'t hear us
complaining about you leaving it down.
3. Sunday sports It\'s like the full moon or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.
4. Crying is blackmail.
5. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do
not work!
Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work!
6. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
7. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That\'s
what we do.
Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
8. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In
fact, all comments
become Null and void after 7 Days.
9. If you think you\'re fat, you probably are.
10. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways
makes you
sad or angry, we meant the other one
11. You can either ask us to do something. Or tell us how you want it
done. Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
12. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during
commercials..
13. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
14. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach,
for example,
is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what
mauve is.
15. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
16. If we ask what is wrong and you say \"nothing,\" We will act like
nothing\'s wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle..
17. If you ask a question you don\'t want an answer to, Expect an answer
you don\'t want to hear.
18. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine .
. . . Really.
19. Don\'t ask us what we\'re thinking about unless you are prepared to
discuss such topics as
football or tanks.
20. You have enough clothes.
21. You have too many shoes.
22.Every dish can be improved with bacon.
23.Do not trust a man who calls the bathroom \"the little boys room.\"
24.Women who sound sexy on the phone weigh 350 pounds.
25.No talking at the urinal.
26.A man may own exactly one pair of holiday-themed boxers.
27.Never date a woman whose father calls her \"princess.\"
28.A PBS tote bag does not make you an intellectual.
29.The weirder the cell phone ring, the more annoying the person.
30.Real men don\'t dance.

Oh, and if anyone should want to comment on the minis (y\'know, laugh, gafaw or maybe some constructive crtits on the photography). The last few were don with anott lamp pointing in more or less the angle of the camera and the aperture setting changed, using my macro lens. I thin they\'re an inmprovement on the previous few but there\'s more to learn, I\'m sure. I still had to do the adjust levels and increas brightness in photoshop.

I\'ll be doing a WIP when I\'m done with the current GKs. I just thought, in my medicated way (I really should have been in bed at that time) some people may have an opinion on how the photos are looking.

Those were some big strawberries I just ate.
Anyway, her\'re are more photos (you must be getting fed up with me) of the most recent thing I\'ve painted, apart from what I\'m working on right now. The third pic is a bit out of focus but part of the reason of doing these shots is to practice.
I could have edited my last post as nobody has posted since but we were in danger of the Freak bar dropping to page 2 again. That just wouldn\'t do.

now Liz is slacking on her duties, what ever happened to the 3 new threads a week, how can I find out how the other peeps live.......come on....... I can’t point and laugh if I don’t have the information!

It\'s painted details, although getting a bit closer up they start to definately look it. lol Still, that was the second thing I painted after returning to the hobby, after the test piece I did for my grey knights. I can\'t show you that one due to it already having been stripped and ready to be repainted.

you know, now that I think on it, in all the painting contests I’ve entered not a one had a category for things like the tank, motor bikes, flying platforms. I might discuss this with Nathan

Bubba, do we have a room in here somewhere that I can trash. I\'m so pissed! Mr. C has just claimed all the minis we have, including the painted ones, except the few that I got as gifts and in mini exchanges. I went from a cataloge of thousands of minis to a few dozen. I agreed because he was trying to claim my paints and brushes, all my basing material, etx. I just completed the RMS paints a month ago with my own money and he wants half. I need to get drunk. I\'m going to make him pay for this!:flame:

Poor Liz.
He\'s not claiming half your new Gamezone minis is he? What\'s he going to do with them all anyway?
You need a hug.

It\'s not my universe, it\'s GWs.
I did wonder if I\'s got it the right way around, though.
