Productive weekend

I’ve been commissioned to write for another HeroQuest Book by Issaries Inc.

Unlike the other book to which I’m merely contributing, which seems on indefinite hiatus as the Project lead works on a completely different project, I’m the Project Lead on this one since 75% of it is my work. Its a book of scenarios for Beginning GMs. I’ve also thrown in a couple of starting towns to act as ready made bases for the adventurers and two essays of tips and tricks (one for runing the game and another for writing adventures). I can’t say much more than this, due to Non-disclosure agreements, but its in four sections and I’ve polished off section one this weekend. Yah! This is good because I’ve given myself two months to put it together.

In other news Rach is really getting her head down and doing her assignments, rather than being a typical student and leaving it to the last moment.

One of life’s guilty pleasures….

One band I really like is The The. Its a pop band with a twisted sense of humour that sticks out like a sore thumb in my music collection of Men shouting over loud geetars.

But I like Matt Johnson, the more whingey and whiney the better. Pile on the bleakness and quirky background music. I will not run away from your 80s synths and drum machines. Come to me I love you!!

Sorry for the temporary insanity but Mr Newt has just bagged three lps (Soul Mining, Infected, and Mind Bomb) for a fiver each.

The Return of Newt’s Boots!!!!

My current favourite possession in life is my giant pepper mill, which gives me hours of fun. However once upon a time it was my boots. These boots went everywhere with me. They were German Paras bought off the market and were so smelly that they made it into my best man’s speech at my wedding!

So they had to go 😦

But now they are back!!! In a new improved urban combat form

Also picked up some urban combat trousers as well 🙂 The only slight downer on what would have been a full metal clothes shopping experience was that HMV didn’t have a Motorhead T-shirt in my size (FAT BASTARD GAMER).

Only one day to Battlemasters. Rock on!!!!

Vote for my throne

Rach noticed that our loo seat is begining to fall apart. Personally I’ve noticed but I prefer to live in denial, since the current Throne is nice to the royal behind.

But no I live with a girl, so the seat must be replaced.

And guess what Rach has let total strangers vote on which royal seat should grace the Newtus Maximus!!!

Not to be out done I now give you my honoured friends the opportunity to influence this important decision.

Which Loo seat????
