I'm wishing I had my own copy of the Pandemic Board game, it's really good. Like Jezza, I can do most all of my job from home, I'm technically self isolated so won't be redeployed into food distribution as I am in time of flood, which is is always pointless as people tend to prefer sandbags to chocolate and coffee. My work laptop is a pile of shite so work will be very slow too, but I will still get time in for painting. It's more the free evenings that will make the difference, and weekends now all races are cancelled until summer.

I've tonnes of books to read and will be making an official plan for painting very soon. Hoping to get a couple of armies done out of this.

Well I got my first game of Zona Alfa played using the solo mods. It was only an introduction scenario and was a bit of a plod, eliminating one set of hostiles before moving on to the next. Part of that may be down to me forgetting that rolling a 10 can really bugger things up. Next time I shall use another option that makes the random baddies a bit more active.

I was thinking of cracking open the Plague Inc. board game...but it might not be entirely the right time!

Trying to decide what to move onto now. My hobby time was pretty much put on hold in October due to house move, Then I ended up working at the wrong end of the country with what time I had totally on Ayton scenery. Going to keep going with the scenery , but I need another project alongside. Not sure what really to get me back into it.

Purps always swore by porn and excessive amounts of masturbation. Maybe give that a go?

Frustratingly WFH actually does mean WFH for me. I have scored a couple of hours travel time and have been using that to crack on with my early Saxons

You have to factor in the bog roll crisis. Time to look through the sock draw for a soft fluffy one.
