A couple of years ago....ok..ok.. possibly a couple of couple of years ago, I painted some miniatures for a friend. Somehow, one set of them went awol from my desk. I searched high, I searched low, I searched and researched, I looked in the most unlikely places I could think of and then some I hadn't thought of, but no joy, they were AWOL!
Time passed..... last week I was doing some housekeeping, going through a drawer full of obsolete cables, chargers for long gone devices, adapters, and so on and getting rid of the ones that had no hope of ever being useful again. Amongst them were a couple of tiny boxes with meaningless codes marked on them. I opened the first one...empty! I opened the second one .. "Hello! You lot are under arrest for desertion!!" Looking at the code closer, it was WRxxx, ah Wars of the Roses.. still, I have no idea how they escaped and hid in there, or how they evaded the various searches!

Still, they have joined 3 other laggards who weren't ready when I handed over the main body and they will all, finally, be handed over tomorrow.
