Thanks for your kind words. My experience of Covid this time was that it was much worse than when I last had it in January. I was surprised how it laid me low and my daughter too. I feel I am just turning the corner now…
I have listened to Round the Horne , started the Sandman on Netflix, listened to the radio cricket as well as Tolkien podcasts. These have been my background to dozing quite a lot of the time. Guilty tv pleasure was “Come dine with me “ repeats
Here are a few pictures of an 40mm interwar imaginations game I set up recently. In more lucid moments I have been imagining a simple, child friendly game played on a grid in a 1920s that never was. I have called it “ Kleine kreig fur kinder” . An odd note was jotted down. The pictures represent such a game. I will close now as I am going to doze.
Glad to hear you're on the mend. Round the Horne is such a classic and good medicine for anyone. I'll be interested to hear what you think of Sandman. I'm eagerly awaiting Mr Copplestone's interwar figures. Meanwhile I'm playing around with thoughts about toy tanks. Take care and remember - don't mess with Mr Inbetween!
ReplyDeleteBrian, my thoughts turned to Mark Copplestone's new figures as well..
DeleteHave heard good things about Round the Horne but never listened to it. Will check it out.

Sad to hear you’re suffering with this virus. Sounds like you have a good strategy for coping though!
ReplyDelete‘Is this game child friendly?’ is a good question to ask ourselves in developing any game. Or at least ‘would a child understand it?’
All the best.

I think I had Covid 2 weeks ago (4 negative tests but all the symptoms) and that really knocked me out. First ime I have had it though...
ReplyDeleteTradgardmastare,
ReplyDeleteGlad to read that you are on the mend … and your figures look great. The reminded me of the troops seen in ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’. Very mitte Europa!
All the best,
