Spare materials? - manrogue - 09-07-2011

As some may know, i'm trying to make up some terrain for the group to use on a tuesday night. What i could do with is some basic materials that people might have around the house and not even realise it could be useful!
I was wondering if people have any of the following that they could throw my way-
Polystrene(of any shape)- as i can cut this into hills, rocks, rock spires etc
Lollipop sticks- good for fences and about to try and make a bridge over a river with some.
(i will also edit and update per project)
If you do have any of these materials spare, if you could let me know via comment below and i will arrange to grab off you on tuesday night!

I'm sure we can dig out some polystyrene for you - will try and bring some along on Tuesday.

Lolly pop sticks - If your after something thinner than the sticks, McDonalds have their coffee stirrers in a prominent place. I'm a big fan of things I can walk away with for free.

That may just be the most genius thing I have ever not heard.

The most important word Legally obviously got missed. I say obviously or maybe I am more devious than I appear Wink

Note that dispite that comment, I have not been involved in any looting over the past few days.
