A photo of four mostly-painted miniatures. They're basically space elf pirates, all their armour is elegant and flowing and a rich burgundy colour, and they have cool turquoise capes and three of them have either a full mask or rebreathers on. The first the has a long sword in one hand and has a bird that's just taken flight from his other hand, the second is holding up a big gem in front of her in the same sort of way that movies depict people holding up crosses to ward off vampires, the third has a hood on and is holding two short blades out on either side like she's just finished slicing someone to ribbons, and the last is kneeing while looking down the sights of a sniper rifle. All but the hooded one have very punk-looking hair: bright-coloured with top-knots and half-shaved heads.

Very happy with how my next four Corsair Voidscarred for Kill Team are coming along!

A photo of an in-progress five player game of Magic the Gathering, with cards all over a table.

Yesssss, first multiplayer game since COVID hit!

I brought my decks in, and although I only won one of the three games myself, my decks won all three. 💪🏻

A photo of the screens inside the restaurant showing what the menu is. Everything (screens AND restaurant) is decorated in a Middle-Eastern fashion, primarily with blues and golds.

A photo of a takeaway cardboard food container with three pieces of lamb mince with herbs and onions in them, alongside fries drizzled with red chilli sauce and yoghurt, and there's very pink cabbage sitting next to the fries. It looks fantastic and tasted even better.

I'm in the office today to play some multiplayer Magic the Gathering after work, we went out for lunch to this place called Kabul Social that does Afghan food and hot DAMN is it amazing! I got the lamb box and it was spiced to absolute perfection.

A photo of two round golden-brown loaves of bread covered in flour, sitting on a cooling rack.

Finally did another batch of bread, and hot damn does it look good. My bread log says the last batch I made was right before Christmas!

(I've been enjoying making big batches of rice-based lunches in the pressure cooker and just bunging that into the microwave to have for lunch when working rather than making bread, so I can spend less time getting a toastie prepared and cooked and more time doing drum practice.)

A photo of a mug sitting on a white kitchen counter. The mug has a faux-Celtic design around handle and the outside, with a big white wolf head sitting in a dark blue oval in the middle of the body of the mug. It's not obvious from the photo but the whole thing is actually 3D, not just printed onto the surface.

It's 19:45 and still 30˚C outside. Good weather for a dark and stormy in the wonderfully tacky wolfshead mug that @yayKM bought me a few years back!

A photo of a painted Aeldari miniature (think "space elf"). She's wearing elegant fuchsia-coloured armour with a dark turquoise cape flowing behind her and a bunch of dark leather pouches across her chest, and is holding two bone-coloured alien-looking pistols, one pointing like she's about to shoot and the other one behind her pointing upwards. She's got a cool-looking rebreather on that has an integrated targeting set up over one eye, and she's got a bald head except for a big tall top knot, and her skin is dark brown.

My first Corsair Voidscarred is finished! Now to actually paint the rest of the squad, given I finished my test Genestealer Cults miniature back in January and still haven't done any more of those either... 😅

Swing

I recorded another thing! It's a slower, swing kind of thing, with the guitar just plugged directly into the audio interface rather than going through my full amp+pedal board setup because I couldn't be bothered getting it out. 😛

I'm aware I cocked up in a couple of places, and this is after I rejiggered a couple of parts of the drums because I realised I was starting the fill in the middle of a bar, oops.

A photo of a plate of beer-battered fish on top of hot chips, with a salad on the side.

A wide-angle shot of a beach with pale yellow sand and low waves and blue sky with some wispy clouds. There's lots of beach volleyball stuff set up because there was a volleyball tournament going on.

A photo of two men (me with a short red beard and short hair, and @dezwart with a goatee, glasses, and long hair pulled back into a ponytail) and two women (@dezwart's wife with long brown hair and glasses, and @yayKM with short pink hair) sitting at an outdoor table with dinner plates in front of us that have just the scraps of food left on them. On the chair next to me are two cavoodles, one large dark brown one who has his front paws up on @dezwart's lap, and the other one a smaller caramel-coloured one with her back to the camera and looking intently at the other dog.

That was an A+ day! We went down to Wollongong for lunch with friends at North Beach, I got fish and chips for the first time in YEARS and it was excellent. Then after that went over to visit @dezwart and his lovely wife and their two doggos and had a delicious barbecue dinner!

A selfie of me, a white man with brown hair and a red beard and a... let's say "large forehead", looking at the camera. My beard is very scruffy-looking and my hair isn't much better.

Me again, but this time the hair and beard have been gone over with a #2 razor attachment and it's all wonderfully short and neat.

It always amazes me just how hairy I am when I compare the pre- to post- head shave photos. So gloriously neat and tidy right now.

A photo of a small scruffy blonde dog lying completely upside-down fast asleep, his back legs are up in the air and his head is off to one side.

Beanie is thoroughly enjoying our new aircon.
