Work in foodservice, and we had a meeting at 2 today where they requested we all take 2 weeks holiday. Don’t really want to use what little days I’ve got but my role is face to face appointment based, and mostly with pubs/cafes/golf clubs etc, so just got to roll with it. Ah well can make a good start on the few bits that need doing round the house.

Plus who I work for has over 40 boxes of loo roll in the warehouse so won’t have to fight the numpties in the supermarkets, went tonight and bought milk and 3 boxes of cream eggs, need the essentials  

I hope all of you folk and your families are all well at this crazy time. Money can be earned again, the health of loved ones is the most important thing.

 

I'm not a fan of Earthrise Starscream tho. Your point is invalid to me, therefore it is wrong!

 

Two Astrotrains so just messing around with add-ons - you can extend the crap out of a base for one thing...

 

What’s stopping Astrotrain from being a series of heavy Decepticon soldiers as apposes to a single individual? Buying another Astro is seeming more and more tempting...

 

He's a definite beserker with that loadout.

I wanted shuttle mode attached to Scorponok and bot mode on my shelf.

 

Yeah, I'm certainly not looking forward to being stuck in the house for possibly months (in HE too and everything basically cancelled till Sept).

Oh jeez - hope things are ok now

 

@Decepticreeps100 - you all take care. Best wishes to the lad.

 

Sorry to hear this Bobby, I hope your boy is now well

 

@Decepticreeps100 hope you and your family get through this ok.

Here’s a little entertainment for everyone self isolating

 

Virtual fist-bumps to everyone out there who is vulnerable or just plain worried. If DMing a stranger will help you cope, feel free to drop me a message x

 

If you or anyone know of a Warpath that looks the part and is the same size as those wonderful TR legends characters, I'd sell you my deluxe warpath. He's a great figure, but it irks me he's the only minibot who isn't a minibot on my shelf.

Hope your lad, you and the rest of your family are ok. Stay safe.

 

Quarantine - Day 27: This is it. Gnaw is looking at me the way I looked at the last steak in the fridge four days ago. And yet, as it's either him or I, I still love him.

 

Spent some time with our Cliff, yeah he's very cool. I'm over the partsforming, and the size is a non issue for me; I've paid a lot more for a lot less. The Transformation is surprisingly involved. 8/10.

 

Welp, at least it turns out it is an actual Soundbarrier! Score 1 - well, 1/3 - to me!
That's 7 days to go until the rest should be with me, and still no dispatch. We'll see, Amazon US, we'll see.

I really shouldn't rag on Hermes so much seeing as R'Local Lass 'Sandra' has been spot-on thus far, seems she's playing it safe and just popped him in the letterbox then peeled off outta here, and, frankly, I don't blame her!

Initial exploration of the wee man it seems to me that yer actual wee man is an essential part of ramp stability, locking out the central hinge, so a rampectomy would be foolish as it'd leave you with a gammy ramp.
He's also a bit chonky for the under-forearm free real estate but, if I can get some adaptors for the ends of my modded ramps, he (or rather they, eventually - hopefully!) will very much improve their city mode incline.
Hasbro really should've offered him packed solo, or at least shortpacked Smashdown, to give the A.I.R.-Lock a proper push, the buggers!
Now the wait for the rest for dyesperimentation! Rassum Frassum Amazon US!

 

Careful with the hips on that guy, mine broke within a couple of hours of getting him.
See here for that and for pictures from folks who have removed the ramp parts, seems to work just fine without them.
Earthrise Soundbarrier.

 

All my heart for him and you.
All of you.

You take care guys.

One hour untill full containment here. Two weeks, two months, more ? Who knows.
Dad still urging me to come live with them, mama still in denial about all of this, my girl still blocked hundreds of miles away from me, me still unsure about my playlist sets for the days to come.

Anyway, you take care guys.

 

We were meant to start working from home this coming thursday, but someone in the office reported they're going into self isolation because they have a temperature. The rest of us basically said "screw this and the sluggish management" and abandoned the office en masse.

Stay safe and stay healthy everyone.

 

I too am surprised at how complacent the owners at my place are being; business as usual is their stance. Thankfully, (I say thankfully but it’s been bloody painful until today when the pain is starting to ease) I had a wisdom tooth extracted at the weekend and so I have been off work recovering from this but it’s back to work tomorrow by all accounts. :-(

 

So I am in isolation, as a tutor with type 2 diabetes I thought it best to avoid teaching for the near future.

Money should be ok but it will probably hinder robit buying in the short term

 

Got a direct link to your post on the hip break? I can't seem to find it scrolling through that thread.

EDIT: Nevermind, it was earlier upthread than I anticipated! Fings crossed looks like I might have been lucky with rampbloke #1, had his legs off to clip the back of his hips as they rubbed the back something fierce (I'm beginning to suspect they were never meant to be used for forward motion articulation) and the hip balls aren't showing any sign of stress. I think I'll be avoiding goosestep running poses from now on though!
