Our weekly #NewTricks group at #WishawLib recently celebrated their first anniversary. So, of course, a little party was in order - with teas, coffee, games and most importantly cupcakes!

This has been surprisingly fun, I have you know :D

I added some green to the helmets, painted the visible parts of the M41 tunics green, added super thin black over the belt and on one pair of boots. The snow sides of the winter coats and pants got painted white, it shows surprisingly well.

Another white and sandy layer is needed in places, and some unstarted details. So far so good, I'm unusually pleased with this progress.

I started my attempt in painting my grayscaled little Germans in living colour: first a thin layer of VMC Middle Fleshtone, whatever that is, and some AK's Mahogany on their boots. I hope my VMC Chocolate Brown isn't dried up yet, it'd be a more suitable shade for boots.

Then I'll try to paint the winter pants white, and the coats in Splintertarn. That'll be difficult with me attempting to dilute paints down to filters. #MiniaturePainting #NewTricks #ScaleModeling

Well look at that. The actor who played Rupert on "Ted Lasso" is in s1e3 of the early 2000's BBC show "New Tricks." Not all that different a part, too. #TedLasso #NewTricks #SurpriseAppearance #television

But progress is made; first one I’m happy with.

World's oldest dog stripped of title. Bobi, a Portuguese mastiff, who died in October, 2023, was unavailable for comment. Alleged to be 31, his birth certificate is missing. New champion is Spike, a 23 year old chihuahua. Again, no comment as he doesn't have a personal translator.

People think you can't grow and learn anything but today it finally occurred to me that when my mouse needs recharging, I can plug it in, *and actually get out and use a different mouse, the one that lives in my travel bag, until the first mouse finishes charging* rather than just grumbling about not having a mouse.

#oldDog #newTricks

now,
let’s hope I remember to put the travel mouse back in the travel bag.

Watching #NewTricks before it goes off iPlayer tomorrow. Amanda Redman's last episode. Fabulous woman.

@podfeet #programmingbystealth #olddogs #newtricks just learned a great new trick regarding using arrays in #bash . When you have a single element of the array that has multiple words, separated by a space you need to set the. IFS variable to an empty string on its own line. This prevents word splitting, especially when expanding the array for using the four or the select statements.

Physically, this is not a really nice day, to say the least

But I'm taking good care of myself
So, I put on some #nice #clothes, some #make-up and cut my #sideburns so my #hair now looks like an #organized #mess

Anyhow, I put a #mirror beside me
So, whenever I see my #reflection, I'm seeing somebody that looks good, in spite of all the #crap #inside
