Man, it’s Friday again! Where are the days going to??

• How is the weather in your part of the world?

At the start of the month, gloriously warm; as time goes on, more “worryingly” warm – we’ve not had rain for a long time. And even when the weathergirl says “colder and a chance of showers” it still feels muggy and warm out. Warm enough that we’ve been swimming in the sea already – jeez, it was cold, but eventually your extremities go numb and you stop feeling it 😉

• Miniature painting and BBQ. Can you do both simultaneously?

Never tried; now you’ve got me curious. Mrs Blinky and I are talking about getting a narrowboat again. Probably not ’til the end of the summer (I know, timing and everything) but already I’m dreaming of next year’s warm spring afternoons, painting minis by the canalside – I might just set up a BBQ. How long do we have to answer this one?

• How many streaming services are currently subscribed to?

I recently bought Prime so we could have music on “Alexa” on demand. Does that count? And, of course, I joined Duncan’s Painting Academy. I call that my streaming service. Other than that, there aren’t enough hours in a day for me to be gawping at the telly!

 

Bleep bloop.

 

Oh yeah… pledges. I printed some not-LOTR minis the other day, just to keep my printer busy more than anything. Lots of swishing cloaks and nice, folded material. I guess I should splash some contrast paints onto them?

Music. Have we had this one?

“If all the people in the world camped out in your back garden, would you write and tell the king or would you grab a tent and join them?” Deep stuff from early 90s pop-rockers Terrorvision. I thought so at the time. It literally changed my view on the world. Simpler days….
