Teach her how to paint figures.....BUT NOT how to wargame. Unless you want to be beaten on a regular basis. (for clarification that's beaten in a wargame)

I'm going to pitch in with badly and bored at the moment...
Irony is, two teachers at home, eldest does all her work independently by 10.30 each day, youngest is still in her pjs at 11 and is refusing to work...

Which one are you Will?

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

I tend to be the latter! 

[Shutuphippie]

I hate to say it but busier than normal at work.  

I work for a contract cleaning/facilities company who provide services to Supermarkets so that part of our business is operating normally

Painting up as much 10mm as I can in my free time plus a weekly quiz with the chaps from our WG club and a Friday Zoom date with some of our friends where we eat together, drink wine and talk crap every Friday for a few hours 😁

With the announcements today, looks like our family won't be able to go out until sometime in July, assuming Stages 1&2 go OK. So another couple of months on the 'Googie Withers*' front .

* Googie Withers was an actress who starred in a tv series 'Within These Walls' set in a female prison. So growing up being stuck indoors (ie imprisoned by the weather etc) was referred to as doing a 'Googie Withers'.

Well I'm just about back on top of the emails now, there were only 400 to deal with...!  Tomorrow I can get on with chasing up some of the orders as well, we're starting to see some stock shortages creeping in but nothing too drastic.

In non-work news, I managed to get through the new Sky 'Gangs of London' series while I was off, not massively impressed sadly.  It didn't seem to know what it was trying to be, a Game of Thrones style web of plotlines, an all out stylised action affair, or a gritty London drama.  Nice set pieces but completely unrealistic in many places.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

I'm part way through series 2 of Van Helsing (excellent so far) and Jo and I are part way through Designated Survivor (series 1 was great, 2 hit and miss).

[Techno]

Welcome from me, too !
