Wot I Think: Trüberbrook Rock, Paper, Shotgun

I’ve mentioned before that I love miniatures. The best part of travelling on planes is buying the teeny tiny versions of shampoo bottles that are allowed through security.

They’re then populated with digital characters made to look like handmade miniatures, and away you go, solving a weird mystery.
