While the girls were oohing over plastic bags and ramen box toilet paper holder, I shimmied out of the shop to look at its window display.I was quite mesmerized by this chess set of pirates and naval officers. So COOL! Not too sure if the pirates were each wielding a cutlass. They look more like swords to me. I love those frowns on the naval officers. Haha.
I like chess sets when they're not in the usual wooden or glass pieces proper. In fact, I don't like playing on the regular pieces and preferably not in black or white. I find it rather annoying somehow. I like playing chess with pieces in peculiar shapes.
I shall go back to take a look at that chess set again and figure out a display space for the board.

mistipurple: think he'll find these amusing!
sinlady: i didn't see actually. the other set was of fantasy, wizards and all. that queen piece i saw- a beautiful sorceress.
Hot Dang! See what you've done?? #1 saw those pieces and wanted one set for himself.
Waitaminute. It should be "See what *I've* done?" I shouldn't let #1 look over my shoulder when reading your blog! Very DANGEROUS for my pocket.
