A local bloke is currently in the second stage of grief after arriving home to find his two-year-old nephew had launched an unauthorised campaign against his meticulously painted Warhammer collection, it’s reported.
Tim Doherty, 32, tells The Advocate that he’d entrusted his mum with simply watering his plants while he was away for his annual ski trip to Japan, but that it was quickly apparent there had been more than one visitor in his home when he discovered several of his miniatures had missing body parts, and were covered in a mysterious sticky goo.
“I walked into my room and just… dropped my keys,” Tim recounted, still visibly shaken, “there were body parts…everywhere.”
Tim’s mother, Denise, 63, remained baffled by his distress, insisting that “they’re just little army men” and that “Tim should be happy the boy is finally off the iPad.”
“Yeah I need to lie down”, whispers Tim, who just found an imperial knight arm wedged behind a chair cushion, “I feel sick.”
More to come.
