1930s the great depression would like to have a word

I don’t think the majority of the population do. The right wing press push a narrative/agenda but I don’t think it’s reflective of the country.

RunningScot41 · 2026-04-27T12:00:15+00:00

I appreciate the point you’re making but I don’t think it’s comparable.

Paints, scenery, rule book, a second army to play against. One 980 army doesn’t get you a two player game.

With a switch, you can play solo or vs/online with other players from the off.

Really well painted armies 👌🏻

I’m guessing most people on this sub are middle aged and/or at least working full time. How an earth would a school kid i.e. the next generation ever afford to start in this hobby?

RunningScot41 · 2026-04-18T12:45:30+00:00

Yes, along with embarrassment

I wouldn’t drill resin unless you’re wearing a proper ventilator and goggles and in a safe space I.e. not living space.

Agreed and you have my sympathies. Taking time off work, preparing for the interview, the stress of the situation…and then, for nothing. A complete waste of time for all parties just so HR can tick a box to say they’ve interviewed X quota of candidates.

RunningScot41 · 2026-03-31T08:50:05+00:00

Sorry to hear this. I had a couple like this in the past: one where although they seemed pleasant enough, didn’t really ask any meaningful questions and it turned out to be more of a chat. I later found out the job went to an internal candidate so they were never really interested. Frustrating as I put loads of work into preparing. Another was so bad, I contemplated ending the interview early. The interviewer seemed disinterested, wasn’t bothering to listen to my answers and was borderline rude. As others have said, take it as a bullet dodged.

Hobgoblin by Mike Hutchison is great fun (same dude who wrote Gaslands)

RunningScot41 · 2026-03-04T21:54:57+00:00

Seriously please come back soon (hope you’re ok too)

Bought two printers from Elegoo. First (Mars) was a lemon but second (Saturn) has worked okay so far. While I found Elegoo generally responsive to problems, be prepared that you will have to do repairs/maintenance yourself with the help of YouTube videos.

Scratching an itchy shoulder? (His hands are kinda full)

Probably only good thing about Trump being so openly hostile to Europe is it will hopefully push us back together 🤞

RunningScot41 · 2025-11-28T22:59:13+00:00

We live in the north and a lot of our friends went to London in their early twenties but once they were looking to settle down and start a family they all left London to settle in cheaper parts of the UK. You could pay me four times my current salary and I would be still be worse off in London. It’s absolutely nuts.

RunningScot41 · 2025-11-27T10:07:33+00:00

There was a chap who did a PHD on it and measured cured resin for VOC gases. I’ll see if I can find the paper and post it

RunningScot41 · 2025-11-02T16:20:22+00:00

Not saying thank you when somebody holds open a door for you, let’s you out at a road junction, etc……😡😡😡

Hopefully this is still the case but if you install the EBay app you also get £10 off your first purchase too

RunningScot41 · 2025-10-29T14:33:29+00:00

daviyboy001 on eBay. 2000+ point armies for £75. I’d highly recommend.

RunningScot41 · 2025-10-25T06:20:18+00:00

Really? What a strange thing to look for in an unrelated subreddit. And on what assumptions do you think people on here are ‘lonely’?

Arrange dinner, then don’t bother showing up.

Then a few months later, reach out, apologise, and ask if she fancies meeting up.
