At the end of the day
we are all human beings
Thank you Southern, TFL, Thameslink, and Southern (again) for making what should have been a fun trip to the theatre in the Big Smoke a living nightmare. It should have been four hours of travel time in total, but ballooned to nearly six.

Just seen this AI slop on a Facebook advert. Everyone remembers the Battle of Rorke's Drift, where the British soldiers in riding helmets fought against Roger's Rangers...

The good folks at Worthing Boardgamers helped me playtest my Elizabeth I social deduction game last night. One (worryingly) easy win for the conspirators, followed by another conspirator win that went down to the last council vote.

My wife also found two Norman crossbowmen under the sofa that the cat had batted there. He really does not like Normans.

Vodafone are doing maintenance in my area, so not only do I have no signal but it is also killing my battery as connects and disconnects.

Franks.

I'll be using as mercenaries/foederati as required. This is a full box of the Wargames Atlantic Dark Ages Army Builder plastics.

We played Star Wars: Outer Rim tonight. I like it, I'm not sure how much though because I always feel that the game is over-long even at 3 players...

I need to have a Norman audit this weekend. My plan is to do Hastings at the club show this weekend for the 960th anniversary, but I've bought so much second-hand recently I need to work out what else I might need. I'm going to use Midgard with double-sized units.

My favourite joke in the history of The Simpsons.
"So that's it? After 20 years, so long, good luck?"

"I don't recall saying good luck."

Played Blood Red Skies last night; Zeros tried to take down a Devastator attack on their carrier. I was Japanese, and it was a partial victory to us as we drove off the bombers the same turn our squadron bugged out.

Fun Fact: My A-Level chemistry teacher once told me that I looked like Mike Mills from REM. Well, he actually said Peter Buck but I think he got them mixed up.

Played the first two scenarios of the Battle of Hoth board game tonight. Was good fun, lots of tactical depth.

We were going to walk along the seafront but "accidentally" went the wrong way and ended up in a micro-pub...

Played Midgard today, the Vikings narrowly saw off the Anglo-Saxons.

Planning to go see the Maps exhibition at the British Library, which means the inevitable visit to Orc's Nest.

Do I have to have seen Fantastic 1, 2, and 3 before watching 4

I played Star Wars Unlimited last night for the first time in over a year. Won three out of four games.

Enjoying playing Master of Command, even if it is fiendishly difficult.

I loved Foo Fighters when I was a teenager, but when I listen to them now I'm just a bit weirded out that all of Dave Grohl's early lyrics are just being mean about Courtney Love. "Nicest man in rock", apparently. #totp

How many Norman cavalry is too many Norman cavalry? Asking for 44 friends...
