Another year's renewal to my spouse visa. Curiously, all the documents specify "Thai wife" as the grounds for renewal, much to the amusement of a female Polish friend married to a male Thai, who by a happy accident of sexism never has to pay for her renewal.

Scimitar into Stanley by Roger Field - should be good inspiration for scenarios so I can get my Pendraken Falklands forces back out on the gaming table.

Scenario book and army guides for War of 1812 - I don't have armies for this period (bought up some in 18mm and sold them off). Perhaps I will give it another go in 10mm or 6mm?

Osprey Campaign Blood River 1838 - I recently picked up Pendraken Boers and will paint them up for some Zulu/Boer and Anglo/Boer games of TMWWBK.
