Alcohol free Nowt Peculier is brilliant. How they managed to replicate Old Peculier’s taste profile is alchemy.

Played the closest game of Chaos in the Old World in a long time. Literally anyone could win it in final round except Skaven. Khorne won on the dual in the end but very close indeed with all players at around 50 or more.

New Year’s Chaos in the Old World

Hating sprouts, I have a Kale and Carrot version of the bubble and squeak.

Happy Bubble and Squeak day
