Both sets of monasteries arrived! I didn't realise both had the same watermark... how will I tell them apart now?!

The rules that come with them, and the CAR, have a tile breakdown so you can differentiate between them.

That's weird. I could have sworn they were castles when I sent them...  ;)

As the images of the tiles we were made public expect of the photographs of the awards :)
A knight is sworn to valour.
His heart knows only virtue.
His blade defends the helpless.
His might upholds the weak.
His word speaks only truth.
His wrath undoes the wicked.

So they are called castles. Oh. Castles acts as a variety of monastery. No wonder things gets confusing.

Here is my latest package.



The multiple meeples are some parts for a fan expansion which I will be sending to a few Carcassonne Central members.

Once I have sent it out I will publish everything on here.

Just lay the damn tile!

Looks awesome!

Except is it me, or are there no shadow on the black and brown meeples?

There is a slight differential - but it's not a big one.  The original art is much more noticeable, but it's lost in the printer.

An evening out with a friend we went for a walk down town for little over an hour.

Then sat down in a small café for two beers enjoying the after 8pm still being warm. As they were closing up, we went to another place and had two more beers, played a little Black Jack and threw darts (I lost on both and had to spring for the bill).

So the night went on, had something to eat and we both went separate ways. I was home about fifteen minutes ago, a little over 1 am in the night. :) Not sure what else we drank for I am a little drunk atm. but, to the point for this post...

... at home waiting for me is batch #2 from CarcassonneShoppe! Yaay! Now I can't tell if I had too much to drink or I am just lousy with my phone camera, but this is the picture (see below). I am happy either way.  :(y)

EDIT: I could not upload original image at 815 kb.  :P I thought this was fixed to allow for larger images.

Hi everyone,

I'm back from Azerbaijan and the postman brought me some nice things from quevy and Decar! I'm really impressed with the quality of the hand-made tiles.

I also got coasters and a rubber scoreboard from the CarcassonneShoppe.

Whilst I don't blame the postman, I object to his employers' business practices
