Keep Calm.....

...I should post that I have acquired a scraggly beard during my recent brush with illness.
Always happy to do requests .

It's getting better...

Battle with the flu goes on although i'm feeling mostly human again. My lovely wife is also on the mend and fortunately (touches wood), Maddie has not caught it. School has been closed most of the week due to all of the snow, which is still on the ground as I write but normality, i'm sure, is not far away. Birthday this week as well and hopefully i'll be able to order a new ipod by the end of the week as i'm getting twitchy without one now. There may also be gaming on the way soon although i'm treading carefully at the moment.

Still here.

Yes, I am still here. No real excuses for not posting apart from having lots going on in real life and not much going on in the gaming world. A quick summary of recent events.

• Maddie getting into the school choir
• Maddie joining Brownies
• Maddie singing as part of Young Voices choir at the O2 arena.
• Maddie singing at Christmas carol concerts and a concert for Help For Heroes.
• One game session, namely Year Three of Harry Potter.
• Everyone in the house catching Swine Flu this week.

That covers most of it. Have some ideas for new topics here before too long.

Whither gaming....?

Well for a gaming blog, the gaming content has been on the light side lately. Mostly this is because I have stopped playing on Thursdays. This is for several reasons, none of which I intend to go into here. The upshot of it is that i'm not preparing anything to run and so have been filling my game-time with other things, not necessarily worthy of posting here. Firstly i've been revising the Justice Associates in prep for a game which may run in October. This one I have to finish so it's been getting most attention. I've also been fiddling around with Decipher's Star Trek system as I have a hankering to write up some adventures for public consumption. The system's not as bad as I remember, actually. I've been thinking about Savage Hawk The Slayer amongst other things. Finally real life has been pretty hectic lately, and, as always must take priority. Still, i'm not going anywhere so watch this space.

I Love Puppies...

But I couldn't eat a whole one... ;-)

Fame Beckons...

Well, as promised I put my Savage Worlds conversion of Thunderbirds on my website. I've also submitted it to Savageheroes.com so hopefully my name will soon be up there in lights...
