Hey Guys
This weekend we’re hoping to drop a game of something in, although to be honest, if it gets as hot as they say it’s going to be, we may be otherwise engaged.
Well, I had a bit of a surprise on Fathers Day which kept me busy for a while. It was Chris’s Birthday at the beginning of the month and I came into a bit of money and after a lot of Soul Searching (Do I spend the money on myself or treat Chris to something he has been wanting for ages) I splashed the cash and bought him a new lower top end Gaming PC.
I just happened to mention that I would like one (yep I was jealous) as mine is a little outdated and not powerfull enough to play a lot of the modern games. It was going to take a couple of years for me to save for one.
So I wakes up on Fathers Day, expecting the usual socks n Mugs n stuff, but istead was given a shedload of boxes. When I was finished opening them I had a load of mystical electronic bits and pieces scattered about the place. Enough parts to build myself a Gaming PC…. Only i’m not very technical so had no idea how. Enter You Tube.
Sooooo I spent a few hours watching video’s on how to build a PC and found one I actually understood and Lo and behold ended up with a new self built Gaming Rig (He he he, see even using the Lingo now), and it actually works…. sparkly lights and glowy fans and doesnt sound like somethings about to drop off when I boot it up 😀
Right on to the questions:
1) I’ve been pretty good thanks. My visits to the Gym have improved my health and energy levels no end. Did have a bit of a scare when I found some lumps appearing on my body but the Doctor says they are Muscles…….
2) Probably do a bit of PC Gaming 😀 and watching the Footy…. and I still have my Mankini so maybe some sunbathing 😀
3) Uhhm Nothing really. I’m primarily a Player so I don’t do a lot of the stuff you guys do with painting and terrain and stuff. I think the last thing I did was paint up the Enlightened Posse for Chris. Was pretty happy with that.
4) A load, but with me theres a huge gap between planning something and actually getting around to doing it. I still want the Batman Miniature Game, am also looking at the New Monsterpocalypse from PP, really need to get the second edition rules for Saga…. the list goes on.
5) Uhhhm there’s a few I like but not sure if anybody else does coz my taste is not the best. The new version of Lost in Space, Westworld, Into the Badlands and Lethal Weapon (series). If you like historical stuff theres Frontier and The Last Kingdom both on Netflix.
