    Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread II

    Can't wait to see who has pissed of Malcolm (snr) enough to be stuck on "Following my Daughter-In-Law" duty this time. Cause if they interact with Kat, they are in trouble. If they don't interact with her, they are in trouble. If they let anyone near here, they are in trouble. If they don't let...

    A good update. Nice to see the poor lass will be getting help, shame that Germany is about to have a "Everyone is after my children!" hysterics period, but these always happen.

    No, the smart ones say exactly one word, "lawyer" and that's it.

    A lot of farm implements make for dangerous weapons. That's why your typical peasant uprising for several centuries wasn't exactly something to sneeze at....

    Hedgehogs + Cardboard tubes is a great way to lose a day. We had a lot of squirrels on campus during my second failed attempt at a third level education. It was pretty relaxing to just sit and watch them at times.

    Hence me saying she needs a tame lawyer so she has the right tools to fight this sort of battle. As it is, she completely did things the wrong way by doing that, especially in her choice of language. Influence and blackmail material are only useful tools so long as the people you have them...

    I know exactly how Kat should go about doing this honestly. However, I'm not sharing as I have something rather similar planned for my own work further down the line and the number of times I've posted something similar to this story at this point is worrying.

    The Law is the Law Kat. She really needs a tame German Lawyer who can exist for no other reason than to allow her to fight certain battles with the right tools. What she just did was not that.

    Beauty of the story right there. Kira was a protagonist (well protagonist supporting) character who is very important in the whole story and who did a lot of things that were the correct things to do. That doesn't mean she was a "nice" woman either. This story is full of people doing things...

    Honestly, if Louis Ferdinand has anything in his life that is making him miserable, now is a good time to share. With people like Kiki, giving her someone else's problems to focus on will help her get over her own ones, at least in this particular depression spiral anyway.

    Remember, that stuff happened with Germany losing WW1. TTL they didn't lose, the political system didn't have the same shock.

    Jost may be a strange man, but he does have a good taste in movies. Seventh Seal is a classic for a reason.

    Army equipment that shouldn't have seen service

    "Four Comets were delivered to the Irish Army in 1959 and a further four in 1960. Severe budget cutbacks affected the service lives of the Comets, as not enough spares were purchased. The Comet appealed to the Irish Army as it was cheap to buy and run, had low ground pressure and good anti-tank...

    Army equipment that shouldn't have seen service

    Oh yes, they were, but in fairness, they did work. Besides, name me a piece of kit our lot have ever been issued that wasn't long in the tooth by the time it finally had to be taken off the lists (no the FAL's don't count, cause we are still using em). And they didn't bury them in the Glen this...

    On the other hand though, the Leyland's worked out alright. Though you do have to wonder what the feck they were thinking with the Comet + Recoilless Rifle situation.

    That man's channel is hypnotic and I love it. Hell, he made eating a WW1 American ration pack look tasty, and that thing was basically Pemmican and Chocolate dust.

    Spam isn't too bad. Not my first choice for meat, but if it was it or go hungry, I'll take it no worries.
