Happy Friday OTTers!

What bit you @danlee??? Coming from the privileged position of living in a country where pretty much none of our native species can you do you any harm at all, it is always horrifying to me to hear of people being hospitalised because of insect bites etc.

Questions:

• Since it’s getting “the dark season” on our side of the planet: are you more a spring summer type or autumn winter? I’m a Spring and Autumn person. I like the world when it is beginning to go into hibernation or starting to come out of it. I live in Scotland though so it is less about the weather and more about how the trees look
• Does the lack of sunlight affect you? Sadly, yes. I wish it didn’t. Winter up here is 6 hours of daylight and it gets me every year.
• Do you tend to be depressive and without energy in the dark times of year? If so how do you communicate that to others and let them help you? Yup yup yup. I try to be pretty open about it. My dad suffered without being open about it and the addition damage that caused him has forced me to address the trait in myself.

Pledge for the weekend is to put some models together and work on finishing my Judge Dredd judges. They’ve been primed and with one base colour down for months, a day of painting would probably finish the lot of them. I’m also doing my 24 hour gaming stream for charity this weekend so having something easy to paint afterwards will be a nice wind down.
