Welcome to this weeks Miniatures & Musings!

This weeks miniature is, I think, my final Bannerman. Another simple paint job and an equally simple banner but another Baron’s War figure destined for my army bites the dust.

Birthday Girl
It’s She Who Must Be Obeyed’s birthday today so I thought I’d give her a shout out in my blog. Anyway that’s enough of that, no point spoiling her.

Give Me Five
This week I decided to take a look at Jack Nicholson. A great actor who has been in a lot of excellent movies over his lifetime in cinema. As ever some good films left out but I came down to the following short list. In no particular order:
- One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest (1975)
- Batman (1989)
- A Few Good Men (1992)
- The Shinning (1980)
- Chinatown (1974)

This week TIM has been listening to …
“Santa Claus Is Coming (In A Boogie Woogie Cho Cho Train)” by the Tractors, a rarely if ever played track so I thought I’d plug it. The track is a revamped version of the original Tractors track “Baby Likes To Rock It” which I’ve also linked below simply because I like it!

This week TIM has been watching …
“Home Alone” starring Macaulay Culkin. With Christmas upon us it was time to watch a festive movie and I settled on this one. My kids have grown up but I haven’t!

Remember …
No matter how old you are, an empty Christmas wrapping paper tube is still a fun thing to bonk someone over the head with!

As Christmas Day is this coming Saturday I will not be posting so I will end by wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas.

Great looking bannerman TIM, and another chip away at the army.
Bucket List is a film I would have to add to the list, as the interaction between Jack and Morgan Freeman was excellent.
Hope you have a great Christmas.

Yes Dave, one less to do. Oddly Bucket List isn’t one I’ve watched, a film for the Christmas viewing list I reckon. Have a good one. 🙂

Merry Christmas! Happy Birthday to SWMBO. Jack Nicholson is great in everything he’s in, I would add The Departed to that list, not sure which I’d cut though…. Great work on the bannerman too.

The bannerman looks great and will fit in well with your army. I enjoyed the comic in today’s post. I haven’t even been married for a year yet and I can already relate! I hope you have an excellent holiday as well 🙂
