Correction

James has asked me to point out that the reason he was given a military helmet for his birthday was not alcohol related. I am delighted to set the record straight. It was in fact a comment on his DIY skills and because he, like me, favours a combination of wide parting and high fringe in his hair. Regular readers will recall that he installed a shelf in his legendary wargames room which has the habit - unfortunate from his point of view, rather amusing from everyone else's - of suddenly smacking him on the head, with the lack of cushioning hair often resulting in the flow of blood. Armed with his new protective headgear he can now change rules and roll dice entirely free from cut-scalp worry. 

 

You'd better beware, you'd better take care
