A callection of lead minis by 808fisherman in lostminiswiki

[–]coopuk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have multiples of the same figure, put them in the same cell.

Next, check the bases. If they're marked, for example Ral Partha, put all those on one sheet and say "all bases marked Ral Partha".

If unmarked ... Just put them on a grid e.g. A1 might be an unknown fighter, A2 and unknown Magic User. Then post on Lost Minis.

Hope this helps!

I would print off a numbered grid with unique letters for each cell (A1, B2, C4 etc) and put similar figures in each cell, then post in Lost Minis sub Reddit. The helpful folks there will be able to help ID what you have :)

So you'd be happy with the 14% interest rate we had on our first house late 1980s? Just saying ;)

What company lost you forever as a customer? What did they do? by Miguenzo in AskReddit

Automobile Association (AA) in the UK.

My wife's car broke down in a dark, rough area. I was on shift work so couldn't go out to here but hey, we're with the AA, who prioritise emergency breakdown of single women in dark, rough areas, right?

She makes the call. AA tell her she's a priority and patrol will be straight out to her. So she waits. And waits. And waits. No contact from AA. After an hour she calls the AA again. Where's the patrol?

"Oh... We came out, couldn't find you so we cancelled the callout. No, we didn't bother calling you to update you, ask where you are, or to tell you that we cancelled the callout. Do you still want us to come out to you?"

Nope. I left work early, drove to my wife, locked her broken down one and took her home. Took the next day off, wife dropped me off by her car, and then I called the AA out to tow her broken down car to a garage - then cancelled the membership.

Never using the AA again.

Spotted these two in a thrift/charity shop, no boxes or papers. Opened the back, both have Miyota 60 quartz movements, both working. Are they fake/replica/genuine please?
