And then the thunder rolled in with a vengeance. We had a few claps that caused me to actually jump out of my seat.

Bloody hell, this storm! (It was significantly darker than it looks here, but the iPhone did its best to lighten things up.)

A photo of the board at the start of a game of Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team. The terrain is Ork-style and the structures look like like a junkyard and are very ramshackle. Closest to the camera are my Coirsair Voidscarred, basically lithe space elves in fuchsia armour and turquoise cloaks. I was facing Space Marines but you can't see them in the photo because they're all in cover and not visible from this point.

Had another game of Kill Team at @[email protected]'s place tonight. In news that will surprise nobody, we only got through two rounds, and I lost.

The first round started well, but it all fell apart in the second. I'm pretty sure the only time I've won with the Voidscarred is when I've played a horrendously imbalanced game against one of the not-very-good Compendium teams. 😕

A photo of our dining table with a Warhammer Quest game set up on it. There's lots of cards and dice everywhere, and in middle are a bunch of variously-shaped tiles connected together that look like the inside of a set of buildings. There's four hero miniatures at the right (one heavily-armoured warrior woman with a sword, a vampire hunter with a long leather coat and a big hat, a steampunk dwarf, and a priest with a rich red robe and a big staff) plus two groups of hostile miniatures at various points on the board (both are groups of zombies, two of them being shamefully unpainted).

We had another visit from @wobin today for more Warhammer Quest!

We're at the point where we need to fight the first big bad before we can level up to Level 2, and it's a two-part quest. The first, which is what we did today, was similar to our previous one where the map is built as you go and you have to stay ahead of the Suffocating Gravetide, and it represents fighting your way towards the big bad's lair. We did that quite handily this time, and player of the match definitely goes to my dwarf Dagnai Holdenstock who is an absolute close combat BEAST when he inspires. I don't think he missed a single attack roll once he inspired.

We didn't have time to do the second half, so we packed everything away and will do it when @wobin is back from his trip to Japan. It's a "Hunt" journey type, but the map is fixed and so are the specific hostiles you encounter as well. Very keen to see how this goes, especially because your characters keep all of their current statuses when you start the second part (so two of our four champions are inspired, and the other two are only one point away from it).

A wide-angle photo of my standing desk in its standing position, my laptop and main displays both have various parts of Logic Pro showing, there's a MIDI keyboard on the desk in front of my regular keyboard, and sitting alongside the wall to the left is a bright orange guitar amplifier and an Ibanez JIVA guitar sitting on a guitar stand.

Aww yisssss. 😎

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

First day of my week off has started with bread. 😎

It's been a while since I've made any, five months according to my log. The yeast "expired" in May 2022 but I've just slowly been adding a bit more each time to counteract that and it seems to be going fine.

A photo taken above our dining table of the Pictionary board and @yayKM in the middle of drawing something. The board itself is long and thin with an almost snake-like pattern on it, divided into squares.

The sixteen year-old is over for a weekend visit and we played a couple of excellent (and slightly modified to account for the fact that there were only three of us) games of Pictionary tonight. 👍🏻

A photo of a white conference room table with a four-player game of Magic in-progress on it, with lots of cards spread out everywhere.

Aww yeah, in the office today to play Magic after work! We only got one game in, mostly because it was very much more of a relaxed affair than usual. My decks consisted of three of the four of them, all of them did well and I ended up winning. 😁

A photo of a big bowl of ramen, with a bunch of garlic on top.

A photo of four people looking at the camera and smiling. They're sitting around a table with empty ramen bowls in it.

Caught up with @[email protected], @[email protected], and @wobin for delicious delicious ramen tonight. 👌🏻
