still around ...

Well, have been very busy of late, none of it hobby related unfortunately - what with trying to get the new home sorted and being very busy at work, I've had no time to indulge my hobbies at all :(

So I thought I should write a quick post to let you all know that I am still here, but lurking rather than posting.

That said, I did finally start reading Empire of the Dead today and although only having read the first 30 pages (out of 140+ in the book), so far I'm liking it a lot! 

Warfare

I  made it along to Warfare on Sunday (just gone) lunchtime with my new friend and had a stroll round the various stands.

I bought far less toys than I would normally have, but as I said in my last post, I am attempting to de-clutter somewhat; so what did I get?

Well, I succumbed to the 10% off offer and bought a copy of 'Empire of the Dead' and the Hansom Cab from Figures in Comfort, who are West Wind's show agents.

Then, as I was leaving, I saw a copy of 'Leviathans' by Catalyst Games, reduced from £70 to £50 and folded on that as well!  I like games involving flying ships as anyone who visits here regularly will know. Although the game includes miniatures, I'll probably use my aeronef models for it.

All in all, I had a great time at the show, but have yet to resume any hobby related stuff in my new place ...

Still here, but offline at home ...

Well, I survived the move and am settling in nicely to my new home. However, my new cave is not ready for activity yet :(  The desk I now have - instead of the dining table - is covered in homeless items so is unusable and my PC is not set up yet.

I still have a bunch of stuff to get from the storage unit and then find homes for it all ...

However, I have been leant a book by a very nice new neighbour called (IIRC) "Feng Shui and the Art of Clutter Removal". Managing to read past the beginning "aren't I wonderful" and 'energy-lines' parts, I've managed to take on board its main theme, and will be cleaning out a bunch of stuff clutter that I've accumulated for creating models that I doubt I'll ever make.

So, sometime soon (before xmas I hope!), I'll be giving away the diecast vehicles I've accumulated (as I promised in this post: ebbles-card-vehicles ) and I suspect they will be joined by some other gaming stuff.

Stay tuned for details.
