"Dave told me that your Arthur had found a good way of making tarpaulins for his toy trains." "Model trains, Jean - they get quite riled when you call them toys - but yes, they look really good. There is a downside, though." "What's that? If it keeps 'em in the shed, and off my furniture, I don't mind. What downside is there from playing with toy trains?" "Model, Jean. Model. Well, it's where those tarps come from. To get enough for most of his wagons, Arthur has been eating Tunnocks wafers..." "Red and blue?" "Red and blue, solidly, for six weeks. He's put on eight stone, and got a special Scouts' achievement badge for 'Unemployed Gas Fitter Type 1 Diabetes Acquisition'." "Is that a thing?" "I sewed the badge on to his parka myself, after that nice Mr Gupta, the Scoutmaster came round and presented it. 14 days - a world record, apparently, so they had the badge made - Mr Gupta's wife was waiting to have an ingrowing toenail done, and the receptionist at the GP's told her about Arthur. He was well chuffed with the badge." "Lovely. At least all his toy trains look nice now." "Models, Jean. How many more times?"

Great tip and a great biscuit. It's sister products, Caramel Logs and Snowballs, are equally spectacular and the "logs" have the same style of wrappers. 👍👌😁 Has anyone seen Tunnocks' products in the shops recently? Their Uddingston factory closed(temporarily) for the first lockdown and I haven't had my Tunnocks fix for many weeks now.

That is a genius idea :) and if it doesn’t work, you can always keep eating and try again!

Jago, I think you might just be a genius. I've never found it difficult to eat a Tunnock's - but now I have a use for the wrappers! Beside making them into mini goblets, that is. And even some good advice about the use of eye shadow - though you might want to ignore this if you favour the Goth/Emo look?

I don't make models at all, but I do paint, and I can't help but wonder if watered down India ink or sumi-e ink would work better than watercolor. I feel like the inks would be less stiff and chalky when dry. I want to say their pigments are finer, but I'm not totally sure on that. Just something to try, maybe.
