Cheer me up please

Anyone fancy a beer at Colours

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.

[Albie Bach]

What ancients you painting?

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!)

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

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

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!

Just finished my first ancients map campaign in Corsica, all went smooth

If you're really working 18 consecutive days you need to read this:

Unless, of course, you're self-employed.

[nikharwood]

Unless, of course, you're self-employed.

Or you opt out...

[Steve J]

From memory the 40 hour thing is based upon an average working week spread over 3 months or so. It's a while since i checked mind. Anyway, my boss is back so some of the pressure is off but I'm frankly rather fatigues to put it mildly. Just thinking of all the gaming stuff I've got planned is keeping me going...

[Leon]

• a limit of an average 48 hours a week on the hours a worker can be required to work, though individuals may choose to work longer by "opting out"
• 5.6 weeks' paid leave a year
• 11 consecutive hours' rest in any 24-hour period
• a 20-minute rest break if the working day is longer than six hours
• one day off each week

Mwahahahahaha!   

I'm guessing none of that applies to being self-employed then...

Nope !!
