Ha! These are great kettlefish, thank you! I must have missed the photo from Scott, we may have to plan a short trip to play 

kettlefish, your gift will be shipped very soon! I had to order smaller boxes for the single items  )

Hi Carcatronn,

You know - Scott and Gantry needed around 6 years to meet each other the first time (Scott works in the same town where Gantry lives)...

But we both met us last year at Spiel 2013 in Essen, Germany...   

Did you get the "German Monasteries" from Moritz yet?

Very true kettlefish! 

My order should be on it's way, so we should have quite a bit of stuff - new and old

Hi Carcatronn,

I've got the coasters of Carcassonne through Udo Schmitz...

They are great. 

[Carcatronn]

Thanks for posting these kettlefish! Isn't the print on them beautiful? I was mailing you a Cloister, but if you already got some from Udo, did you want an Abbey instead?

Hi Carcatronn,
that is nice - an Abbey... 

The graphics on the coasters are great...

At the moment I am putting some self adhesive transparent foil on the landscape tiles the front side. 10 coasters are now finished...
I will play the game in the garden with some neighbours.

Alright, Abbey it is. I'm intrigued to see this transparent foil, please share photos when they're ready!

here is an example:

Oh wow, you can't even tell the difference! What a neat idea to make them last longer.

[kettlefish]

Yes the coasters look almost the same.
I hope that the foil is enough for the back side...

[Carcatronn]

I'm going to have to pick some of this foil up. Does it repel liquids? Would be a perfect pairing if they do!

[kettlefish]

I will send a finished tile to you, then you can test it yourself...

Haha sounds perfect

Hi Carcatronn,
I've got my package: one green shot glass and an abbey tile (pulp coaster)

Thanks
