Weekly Waffle #175
It’s been such a nice week this week that I haven’t actually spent too much time indoors so the weekly waffle is going to be short. But I have managed to get some gaming and some hobby time in. Saturday saw a return to D&D and we’ve been on the same road now for a couple of months, because it’s been a long time since were all last together. In what is now becoming something of regular event we put our characters that have night vision on watch when it goes dark so that, in theory we may have some chance of a warning if anything untoward were to happen.…

I’m hoping that this week’s weekly waffle will be a more positive update than last week. For a starter this week I have pictures. The problem last week was that I couldn’t find my card reader to get the picture of my camera and my phone had died so I couldn’t use that as a back-up. Any way this week I’ve replaced the card reader, which means the missing one is bound to turn up over the weekend, and my phone has been replaced so I’m back in the game. So with the technicalities sorted what have I been up to this week. First of all I haven’t done any…

No gaming for this weeks weekly waffle and I’ve been back on the road for a few days so haven’t spent much time working on either Wild West Exodus or Necromunda but I have managed to do a few things on the hobby front. First of all the ATV I had ordered turned up so I’ve been putting that together which has been something of a learning curve. Because this is a scale model as opposed to a gaming piece the resin used is very hard so that it can provide the level of detail required for this type of model. The result was that I managed to break a…

It’s been another slow week for this week’s weekly waffle with not a lot of progress on anything really. There’s been no game night and no D&D so all told it’s been something of a let-down. No particular reason for this it’s just been slow. But it’s not been a total write off. I get the Empire of the Blazing Suns Emissary model for Wild West Exodus this week. This also marks something of land mark as now that War Cradle have taken over and they are ostensibly part of Wayland Games I was not expecting this model to turn up for at least another four or five weeks. So…

It’s been something of a slow week this week for the weekly waffle and I’m putting it down to having joined the gym. Not an opening line you would expect to see in a hobby blog but as this is a waffle and it’s my site I can do what I want. Having come back from a week of really rich food at Adepticon I’ve decided that my gamer physic is getting a little bit out of control so I’ve signed up an eight week course at the gym to kick start me into doing a bit more exercise and generally being a bit more healthy. Part of this has…
Weekly Waffle #169
Well Adepticon feels like a dim and distant memory now and the world has slotted everything back into place as if the trip never actually happened. So that’s the post-holiday blues out of the way and everything is back to normal. Although the mojo is still up and I’m working on getting some hobby time in every day, even if it’s only ten minutes. I read somewhere that one of the blockers for getting things done is actually starting them so by planning to do something, no matter how small, each day gets you in the mind set to get things done. No idea if it will continue but it’s…
Weekly Waffle #168
For this week’s weekly waffle I’m hoping that some sort of normal service will be restored. As promised last week I managed to drag my thoughts together and get the review / update of Adepticon published this week so I hope that gave you taste of what it was like. And if there any of you out there planning your own trip I would highly recommend it, I’m hoping to be back again in 2020 so I may see you there. So what have I got for you this week? With this being a waffle I’ll start with a bit filler and that has been that I have finally gotten…
Adepticon 2018 Review
Well then as promised this weekly waffle is going to be a lookback at our trip to Adepticon this year but my idea is to give you a run down on the whole trip from start to finish. Things started with a touch of excitement when I got up on the Sunday morning to find a layer of snow everywhere as some doubt as to whether we would be able to even make it to London. As it was after a coach trip, three trains and then bus ride we made it to the hotel for the night which was in sight of Heathrow which made me feel a lot…
Weekly Waffle #167
So I’ve been back form Adeptecon for a few days now and having booked the rest of the week off I haven’t needed to go back into work yet. Which means I’ve had lots of time to put together a packed update for this week’s weekly waffle. Except what I’ve actually done is lazed around all week and done nothing, or next to nothing. I will get round to getting more images uploaded and into a proper post event post but I’ve just not done it yet. What I do want to say is that it was a really good event and I for one will be going back, probably…
