Packing my snowball teams of Lemax snowballer 54mm figures (including two mystery teams not made by Lemax) and Christmas village snow terrain ready for the Woking 54mm Games Day this Saturday March 4th 2023.
March 4th is also celebrated by some around the world as Toy Soldier Day … and Marching Band Day!

It’s only taken me three or more years to get to Woking, as you can see from my March 2020 post written on the edge of the Pandemic disruption:

Hello I'm Mark Mr MIN, Man of TIN. Based in S.W. Britain, I'm a lifelong collector of "tiny men" and old toy soldiers, whether tin, lead or childhood vintage 1960s and 1970s plastic figures.
I randomly collect all scales and periods and "imagi-nations" as well as lead civilians, farm and zoo animals. I enjoy the paint possibilities of cheap poundstore plastic figures as much as the patina of vintage metal figures.
Befuddled by the maths of complex boardgames and wargames, I prefer the small scale skirmish simplicity of very early Donald Featherstone rules.
To relax, I usually play solo games, often using hex boards. Gaming takes second place to making or convert my own gaming figures from polymer clay (Fimo), home-cast metal figures of many scales or plastic paint conversions. I also collect and game with vintage Peter Laing 15mm metal figures, wishing like many others that I had bought more in the 1980s ...

An auspicious day for the games day indeed! Glad you are finally able to be with us. Weather forecast suggests a cold snap at the weekend so a most appropriate game to be bringing.
