Cheer me up please

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

In per school depression, stressing about new classes.
Had a game in Thursday, and playing FOW at Colours, between here and then is a walk up in the local Nationsl a trust woods at Ashridge, an inset day, and many many many hours of teaching and feeling useless about being a teacher. 

Anyone fancy a beer at Colours, or will it turn into the Forum bar fight for real?

[Albie Bach]

If you want to bung some die let us know.

Thanks for the offer, Steve.
I realised later my comment about misplacing my rulebook could appear to be fishing to have a go in your game, which I know is a Demo game. That wasn't my intention; I just wanted to refresh my memory so I would have a better idea what was going on. I've found my book now.
I hope to be at Colours with my wife and if so we'll come and say hello in any case.

No wargaming for me tomorrow. Other commitments. Have another nice day at work.

Next job is to start some Pendraken ancients I bought recently. I'll make a start on them this weekend.
Cheers, Colin

What ancients you painting?

[Orcs]

Well I an having an affair with a stunning 25 year old redhead who cant get enought of me 

Wakes up to reality 

I'm on the 6th of 7 twelve hour night shifts, I have been so bloody tired on getting home this week I have done no painting - normally manage a hour or so before bed.

This year I will try and find time to say hello as we are on the same floor. Fingers crossed our demo games should be quite short so plan to have more time to have a good wanbder of the show. Well that's the plan anyway.

Colin, you and your wife are welcome to join in a bit if you want. It's a demo game I know but always fun to share the joy/pain of a game with fellow forum members. We just don't want any riff raff at the table .

You don't want Colin then     Mind you His wife painted lots of his 15mm ACW confederates so let her play.

I'm using some of the Pendraken Late Roman codes to make a Goth 1000pt starter army for Warmaster Ancients

His wife painted lots of his 15mm ACW confederates.

True, and at the time her painting was better than mine. I think mine has improved since then.

Understood. Thanks.

I'm at the end of my second week leave, and have another one yet to come. After that it's back to shifts like 3 years ago  

If you have been on 9 to 5 hours for years it's a tough nut to crack.

Anyway i am busy painting the last of my german infantry. Then i will base them and afterward speedily paint the next batch of british stuff, ready for a BKC game in three weeks (beach landing huzzah!)

Definitely fancy a beer, but a cup of tea may be more the order of the day!

I'll be there Sunday, so if you're there, if there's space and IF #1 daughter fancies it I/we're in

Cheers,

Meirion

[Steve J]

Look us up Meirion and let's see what happens. If you don't get to bung any die, at least we can have a chat.

Cheer you up Steve!

For painting: I'm trying to end some fantasy figures half painted, some lizards, and then start some units of ottoman 16cent.
For gaiming: Maybe a play in Xmas. Having my regular opponent to 600 km and no one playing around, it is difficult to play.
Other proyects: edit Warmaster & 10mm digest nº2 when the articles come.
For Rules: still loving warmaster but searching a ruleset for steam punk gothic era.

All of this is great but now I have a son of 3 months so I do not have to much time for the hobby (and also do not have to much time to sleep also )

Well managed to have a half day off today after a long day yesterday. Felt weird but great to spend some time in the sun and to see the family. Fingers crossed I'm off from Thursday for over a week with all my TOIL that I've accrued . Can't wait. I've got loads of stuff planned but "The best laif plans of mice and men..."

Definitely will Steve - I'm starting to get excited about Colours already

If it's any consolation, I'm working as well!
