Nothing Achieved

This evening I was still aching. Waiting on the results of another blood test. Worst case scenario is that I have fibromyalgia. Which is a pain, no pun intended .

This has been grumbling on like this for eighteen months to two years. Last time I went to the doctors I was told it was just my age. At least this one actually listened and came up with a couple of possible causes. One being poly myalgic rheumatism and the other was mentioned above.

So the aches and pains continue for a while.

A Big Number

Well according to WordPress I hit a milestone. Yes today I passed 50,000 views. which frankly I find a bit bonkers really.

So if you are one of the people that popped by, even just to leave wondering what this crackpot is on about, then thank you. I really do appreciate it.

It has been a beautiful day up here and when I got back at 20.00 it was still nice. Skylarks were out, blackbirds were singing and the Oyster Catchers were in full voice too.

New Book

As I said yesterday I got two parcels when I got back from vacation. This was my book…

I really haven’t had a proper read through, but I like the idea where you can win militarily but lose politically. In a one off game it doesn’t really matter, but in a campaign it really does.

The rules are for company sized engagements so I won’t be playing these in 28mm.

Shopping Day

Today was a shopping day with the kids running wild in the Metro Centre. Thankfully every shop they wanted was pretty much close to each other.

We then descended on IKEA… which proved a little expensive (you cannot get IKEA stuff easily or cheaply on Shetland).

Funky lights in IKEA

Finally we went to our friend house, we saw them last in 2018.

Tomorrow we head to Leeds.

Swamp Goblins Cavalry

Just had a thought, are you cavalrymen if you only ride horses… are frog mounted goblins cavalry or are they something else?

But I digress, I just realised the time and I have painted nothing… I did clean up the test bits and pieces.

Noisy Bugger

Tonight I started on the first of the frogherds. Yes my little frog army needs rounding up and pointing in the right direction. This is done by two simple means.? These being loud noises and pointy sticks. A combination of the two works well.

He still has a long way to go but he is getting there.
