• Interacting with creators (YouTube video makers, game producing companies etc) – how is your experience with it?

Erm. Patchy. Some people think their video channel/twitter feed etc. is their only means of communcation and are super-responsive to any and every comment – this might be brilliant, or it might be a banal copy-and-paste response.

• It’s October, have you started getting all the Christmas presents?

Absolutely. We’re so sick of this year and constantly dealing with one f@*king thing after another, we’ll try anything to try to bring it to a close early. So whereas I’m normally grumpy about anyone even mentioning the C-word until mid-December, I’ve embraced it this year.

• From the ring of the alarm clock to full throttle, how long does it take you to get up to speed after waking up?

About six minutes. And that includes oblutions. Mrs Blinky can get up, make a brew, tidy up, and come back to bed. As soon as my eyes are open, I need to get up and get going. (we don’t have an alarm;  most days I’m awake from 8am-8.30am irrespective of whether I go to bed two hours before or four hours after midnight.)

 

Pledge – seriously, what’s the point?! I’ve blown just about every pledge I’ve made in recent weeks. From “finish my KITT diorama” to “don’t start another project” I just can’t seem to keep to them. Maybe this week I’ll just pledge to eat more biscuits? (we just did a “big shop” and I’ve plenty in!)

Music

I think I’ve come to terms with the fact that I actually quite like quite a lot of country music. Especially when it’s played like this.

Oh, I finished my Wildhearts group this morning.

“Print your own heroes” said the HeroForge website. So I did. Now I’m printing a drumkit for the 28mm Ritch Battersby to sit behind and a couple of Marshall stacks for a diorama.
