Back in January (2020) I set myself the target of getting (at least)
12 items from the Lead Mountain to 'Table Ready' each month.
I had the hope of moving 144 'things' out of the back-log.
Who was to foresee Covid & lockdown/lockdowns?

Well with time just about up, I have totalled up the numbers:-
Jan = 24,    Feb = 52,  Mch = 101,  Apl = 91, May = 101, Jun = 76,
Jly  = 68,    Aug = 75,  Sep = 82,    Oct = 0,  Nov = 32     Dec = 21.

So despite a complete shut out in October & a slow down November & December,
I have achieved target, in fact exceeded it by 500%
You might think this has made a whacking great hole in the lead mountain...
NOT A HOPE !!!!!
Ah well now to plan something for 2021, any suggestions?

Thanks guys.
I might just continue with the odd fig/figs/scenery,
but I think I would like to do mini-projects through-out 2021.
January has been decided. Flatpack wants to do some Back of Beyond
skirmishes, using Fistful of Lead rules. Therefore I have looked into the
Lead Mountain, Resin hill & MDF woods & come up with...
a (small) White Russian force. Photos as & when I get something done.

Now the Christmas stuff has been moved back to the attic,
& the extra kitchen pots & pans etc. returned to their home,
and some space is appearing in my room at last,
I will (honest) be starting the Chopper, & the light aircraft &
Dave's  Indian hovels.

I need to step up my game if I'm ever to reach your level.  That's an incredible amount of work! It shows in your photos too, they look great!

If you produce as much in 2021 as you did in 2020, or even close I think you will have done incredibly well. Think you need to get some games in, pencil a Peninsular one in for May / June to encourage some more Spanish to the table - and then there's Jacobites - maybe for July, and then ....

Thanks, but at the moment I'm not feeling brilliant. Nothing serious,
but shivery & nauseous. At present not going to work, just staying in
the warm & mainlining on LemSip.
 Planning for projects is still at the thinking stage.

Obviously sitting in front of the screen for the Discord game has lowered your resistance  lol
Keep taking the lem sips, watch some trash TV, be well  :)
