Forth, Eorlingas!

So, I was sorting out my pennies and spare change that I keep in a box in my bedside table, when I suddenly was overwhelmed with the bored desire to build an army. It started with a few bronzed tanks of 2ps and a missile or two of 20ps glistening against the sea of a freshly vacuumed carpet.

Before I knew it, there was a full army of ugly 1p orcs facing the copper coloured walls of Helm's Deep, defended by the shining silver collaboration of elves and men. Also, Gandalf coming to the rescue on the top of a polished leather hill with his beautiful following of (admittedly cheap) Rohirrim.

I tried to take nice pictures of it that displayed the battle, but it really does just look like pennies on the floor! Despite that, it was a pleasant afternoon, and it only cost £27.90.
