Well Done, That Man! - herroberst - 12-12-2007 Thanks for rejoining our ranks, POS. Your posts are always interesting and informative and I appreciate the mini-tourneys.;) RE: Well Done, That Man! - PoorOldSpike - 12-12-2007 Thanks mate, incidentally I shall be putting up a silver cup for all my competitions from now on, rather than a metal tank paperweight because gleaming cups look better and have a 'forever' quality about them. As I've said before, long after the earth has exploded in some catatrophe, there'll still be debris floating around out among the stars.. "What are they commander?" "Probes of ancient origin" ![[Image: Artifacts.png]](http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g64/PoorOldSpike/Artifacts.png)
RE: Well Done, That Man! - herroberst - 12-12-2007 Well, personally I would prefer another armored fighting vehicle but it is your tournament so cheesy plastic silver cups it is!:) RE: Well Done, That Man! - RNL Tiger - 12-12-2007 herroberst Wrote:Thanks for rejoining our ranks, POS.

In fact a tank costs far less airmail postage and insurance than a valuable heavy silver cup..:) He can choose any tank type from any of the ranges of models available around £12 (20 dollars), for example - ![[Image: t34model.jpg]](http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g64/PoorOldSpike/sub3/t34model.jpg) http://www.anticsonline.co.uk/1427_1.html RE: Well Done, That Man! - RedDevil - 12-12-2007 I'll comment that these cups are pretty nice and NOT plastic...

RE: Well Done, That Man! - PoorOldSpike - 12-12-2007 Incidentally when I was in the cup shop once, I sorted through them trying to find one without a blemish on the stone base, and eventually said to the shop assistant - "Have you got any without any marks on the bases, or are we supposed to try to polish them out?" The whole shop went quiet and customers and staff stood staring at me in amazement as if I was a crackhead. "What do you mean?" said the manageress,"those 'blemishes and marks' as you call them are simply natural striations within the stone and can't be polished out, they add to the value and character of the stone" My face went bright red and I skulked out wearing a sheepish grin.. RE: Well Done, That Man! - Dashammer75 - 12-12-2007 I agree well done POS. Heck the tanks or cups look cool as hell. If I ever got one I would put it in a place of honor in my house. |
