so are you really trying to get us to believe that the weight of democratic opinion will stop you going for option 4 ?

I've voted for option 3 just to p*ss you off :)

I don't have any friends...   :'(

I am considering painting up something for me and my son to have a game with.

I'll probably do 4 at some point, just because I can!  But I'm undecided whether to watch some of the boxsets as well, or just doss about.  So whatever people choose, that's what I'm doing.

I'm glad to see the number of people who'd like me to continue with the Pendraken work on my weekend!  Not like I do as enough as it is!!!   :P  To be fair though, I'll end up doing some work, I always do.

The son's away with the missus, so no wargaming.  We've started going for mini-hikes recently, get him out of the house and into the countryside where all the bugs live!  But this weekend is all mine, so apart from leaving the house for takeaways, I'm stopping in.

So how's the naked work / DVD megathon going?

Someone's leaked a pic of you though - are you aware?

That's not far off, but I've got a laptop...

And no nipple piercing.

Well, I watched 'Two Towers' last night, which came in at a whopping 3 1/2 hours!  I hadn't noticed the extra scenes much in the first one, but this one has loads more, lots of interesting explanation type scenes.  And the wiping out of all the Orcs/UrukHai at the end by the trees!

Might try and get through the last one tonight!

Well I watched Return of the King tonight, and thoroughly enjoyed it.  It's been a couple of years since I've watched the films, and I've never seen the extended versions before, so I was surprised just how many extra scenes there were in it.  Good stuff!

So, that's my weekend over.  I did some Pendraken work, and watched the LOTR boxset, so didn't do too bad.  I'll be asking for everyones input for my next free weekend, which I've pencilled in for 2012.
