All packed up..
I'm still here and the Blog is still "live"....
Seventeen packing boxes of board games, about twenty cases of figures, plus terrain all in packing mode pre. the madness of the house move, which in theory is end of the month (but this being England, with its "not fit for purpose" system, nothing is certain till the actual day..).
Allowing for at least a month sorting things at the new house I don't foresee any action this side of Xmas (that's the real one, not the one which started here in UK about three weeks ago - pic) but we shall see....
Once settled-in I hope to have a "Campaign Room", for mapping/planning et cetera, where multiple parallel campaigns will be more manageable, and a "Play Room" for the table action (though some works to an existing "summer house" at the new place may be necessary first...), then to get back into the swing of more regular posts here..
Onward and upwards...
P.S. (10/12/2023)
Thanks to a Cyber attack, (apparently the fourth in two years) on a system used by some 80 to 100 solicitors/conveyancing practices in UK, our house move the other week stalled..
A major company called Taylor Rose, handling the far end of the chain, with seemingly no back-up plan for continuing business despite this known threat (or no willingness to use, unlike other practices, a practicable manual process system temporarily) brought everything to a standstill, and has now said the chain might proceed "maybe in January"...
IF they sort themselves out...
So, not only are all things on hold till the new year (including any gaming), but we are living out of boxes and packing cases over Xmas, and the whole mess is going to add some £2,000+ to our costs....
Did I say the English house conveyancing system is unfit for purpose already...?
I see above that I did.....
