    Weekly Waffle #361 – Retrospective

    Weekly Waffle #361 – Retrospective 4th January 2025 For this week’s Weekly Waffle I’m starting by having a bit of a look back on last year. Then I’ll lay out what I have planned for the rest of the year. I’m going to start by summing up last year as a hobby success. Now I will clarify that a little bit by saying that I’m not defining that success on quantity or quality. But rather on consistency. I managed to bring you a newly painted mini for every update. That doesn’t quite mean every week because I had a few trips where I deliberately didn’t do a post on the…

    Weekly Waffle #349 – Jackanory 5th October 2024 This has been something of a weird week for me on the hobby front. Which is where the title for the blog has come from.

    Weekly Waffle #345 – Dredsmasha Helper

    Weekly Waffle #345 – Dredsmasha Helper 17th August 2024 This week’s weekly waffle is all about the impact of having to commute into work every day has on my hobby time. It’s going to be a bit of moan but I’m also hoping there is some positivity in there. For the last few years I’ve been lucky enough to do what refer to as hybrid working. So I’m in the office a few days a week and at home for the rest of the week. Those days in the office tend not to be at my local office, which is about fifteen minutes from home. So there is quite a…
