Back From the Left Coast

I returned last night from 3 days in the land of the lotus eaters (that's Vancouver BC, to non-Canucks) for a conference.  Luckily it's a short diversion on the Sky-train to Imperial Hobbies where I picked up

1. A copy of Black Powder having been curious for a while and I regretted NOT getting it last June.
2. A 1:2400 scale model of a  Leander class cruiser for WW2.
3. Angus K's Osprey on the QE and R class battleships in WW2
4. Another Osprey on the Fleet Air Arm in WW2
5. A sheet of decals which I was intending to use for pennant numbers on my WW2 destroyers, but seem to have left in my hotel room instead.
