I wasn't well before the game, in fact the gaming (though not nearly as good as the real thing)
was the one thing that made me feel good over the weekend, oh and having a great wife to
look after me.

Sorry you feel unwell mate.
Glad the game raised your spirits a little.

Cheers Bob.
Been thinking, dangerous I know, but following on from the On-Line game,
Rebels & Patriots would be do-able. What do you think?

I was wondering why I didn't bump into you today, but at least you're in the best place to rest up.  Take care and feel better soon Pete, hopefully we'll be able to catch up on projects galore when this whole lockdown hullabaloo is over

I'M BACK!!!!!

The plan for 2020 (pre Covid) was to 'do' 12 items a month.
Thanks (?) to Covid I knocked that target out of the park.
2021 I have decided to do it slightly differently.
each month I will get something out of the backlog & ready
for on the table. It will not stop me doing other odd bits as the
mood takes me, that is a system that works for me.

January's target, inspired by Flatpack's work on Back of Beyond,
is to get a White Russian force ready for gaming.
Here are the unpainted figures.

If the Russian on the side of the turret doesn't say, 'Steel Eye'
then blame Google translate.

Last, for the present, is the 'Household'
Three Gamekeepers, each with his own dog.
The family Priest (Rasputin?).
The House Keeper &
the two daughters of the Duke/Baron (I haven't decided on him yet)
I have sent for some more Russian bits, but as they are coming from
Siberia (Miniatures) it might be a while before they arrive.

Now on to February & Wot I gunna do. 
First up are some things (long promised) for friends, but then...

Cheers David. I would have taken you up on your offer
of a chat, but I am diving in & out of my (freezing cold)
room, (freezing cold & wet) shed and warm living room.
Next task to find & get started on things I promised before
Christmas. Showed your vegetables garden to Helen. She was
very impressed. Says you are very talented.
