For those who couldn't make it along to the Birthday Bash, let us know if you're celebrating at your end, and what you're doing! Plus pics!
:-bd
I thought I was going to be in Florida catching fish during the birthday bash. Instead, I'll be at home painting.
The aim is to have a game of BKCII this afternoon/this evening. Still not sure whether to go the Balkans 1941 with Greeks vs Italians or some more AVBCW fun. Another option is a bit of a 'What if?' game with the Italians taking part in Operation Sealion. Still a few hours yet to make up my mind :).
Friday night - basing up some minis
Today - cricket tournament this morning/afternoon (if it ever stops raining... :d)
Tonight - neighbours Garden Party I-)
Sunday morning - Cricket coaching (if it ever stops raining... :d)
Sunday evening - catch up with the Rugby League ;)
Have fun chaps :)
Camping at weston super mare for the weekend with my wife.
It is wet and windy but we have an ancient Hymer motorhome which keeps us dry
No firm plans as yet - but likely to include making a start on painting my FPW French...and definitely some battling later - just can't decide what to play!
Miner's Gala in Durham to celebrate the Labour Movement, and listen to a speech by Ed Milliband and Chami Chakrabati.
Followed by a cleaning blitz on the house.
Painting minis, a room in my house, and myself into a corner financially by mailing a huge Pendraken order.
Cheers,
Aart
Out to dinner to celebrate my sister-in-law's 21st (!!!???) birthday for the umpteenth time. :D

Heading South to my Grandmother's 99th birthday and a bit later driving through the Wilson Creek ACW Battle site. I hope to take some pictures if actually get a chance to get to the park.

Shopping in town...Oh the joys
Finished some 1/300 planes that had been on the desk for far to long. Time for some Pendraken goodies next!
Why, working out a minibits order, of course. :D And washing bird crap off the lawn furniture. :(

You mean to say the volume of rain we have been having hasn't done that for you :o :o :o
Well, the little painting elves in Sri Lanka have done their work and, in spite of all the efforts of the couriers to thwart them, delivered my 1866 Austrian infantry - fawsends of 'em! So now I am in mega basing mode. It requires a degree of organisation which I rarely possess, but so far it's going OK. Helped by the fact that Fernando have done a brilliant job on what is, let's face it, a pretty tedious uniform, I am making progress 'cos I want to see them on the table - badly! For the first battle I'll need 360 line bases of four figures each and 60 jaeger bases, likewise. So far 10 bases completed, another fifty ready for painting, another sixty with figures attached. So almost there, really!!! ;) :-\ :-\

Doesn't sound like a good combination :( hope you feel better soon.
As for me, chores and recovering from the week, plus managed to watch the MotoGP qualifying and of course the Pendraken live feed 8) Hope you all had a great time at the birthday bash
Sunday hopefully will see some sculpting and painting before the obligatory visit to the in-laws....
Cheers,
Kev
Today was spent in Incheon for the baseball game between SK and Doosan. Tad too much liquid consumed so fear a rough noggin tomorrow :(

Mollinary? Do you hear me?
Put down that box of white pills, boy! Now! Come on, do it!
That's right... There you go... Easy does it...
Now, turn round and keep your hands where I can see them. Good boy, the ambulance will be here any minute.
Cheers,
Aart
Aart,
Phheeew, thank heavens there was someone out there who heard the plea for help! Close call! :D

Dryish summer on this side of the pond, at least in my bit, this year.
Going and turning to the maternity to hear : "Not today"
Good luck Barbarian! :D
Midnight, my plans for a game tonight has been scuppered by a very heavily asleep baby! Can't go out to the garage to get my kit incase she wakes, will get the game and piccies tomorrow!
Dismantling a shed and ripping up carpets
I celebrated by building CornFields. Unfortunately for me this celebration will continue all week. :'( Happy birthday Pendraken! :)

Hope you all enjoyed yourselves as much as we did (except for those of you who were knocking down sheds, painting rooms, or any other strenuous activity, that doesn't sound much fun!) :D

I very much enjoyed Leeds Rhino's doing a proper job of knocking Wigan out of the RL Challenge Cup :D
