Saturday Night, Getting On.

All the crew are down the pub, but I chose to stay in with Oi and Grace, Even though, I just got trashed in my den, it is good to be close and we cohabit quite well.

I got some wine. It serves well.

Summer Holidays

Well, it's kind of here. Yesterday was the last day of term, though I still have exams to check in on, and mark, and we (Harry, Kate and myself) have all been roped into doing another 2 weeks of a private course, for no extra pay. I will try to resist.

I celebrated by purchasing some choice ales from the fish-bowl booze shop in the town. Bloody lovely they were too, and I got a special free glass. Later I went to Pete's restaurant and had a good time with the lads here; Jonny, Arun, Harry and Brian are all excellent company, and we have a real giggle.

I am slowly making my way through painting all the miniatures to Battlelore, a 2 player fantasy war game I am dying to have a crack at. Star Wars Imperial Assault is next in line for a paint job.

Gaming has been on Thursday nights and once a week. More than this and Oi starts making grumbling noises. So best to keep her happy. We have been working our way through the Descent campaign and it's nearly finished. Zombiecide is a popular favourite, though I want to get X-Wing back on the table but it is a bit more of a thinker, and set up can be quite long as there are a plethora of upgrade cards to consider when constructing one's fleet. Very tense game though. Love it.

Grace is fine and enjoying her young life. Her two rabbits are fun and I find myself growing quite fond of them. Never had a rabbit before.

Walking Dead and Vikings are back on the telly and I am sure will be great fun.

I try to play World of Tanks regularly too, as it is such an excellent game.

The garden is looking lovely and the house is an excellent place to relax, which is what I like to do most of the time.

Enough.
