The "Nice Happy" Thread

First meeting of the year but I had to rush for the train there and back. Train was at 6:54 in the morning and I left the house after 6:30. Just made it.

Reached Reading at 09:43 and wait for bus was not too long.

Played Marvel Champions and that was a bit of a slog even with the simple scenario.

Dredd was nasty. Twice tried to get into the Grand Hall of Justice only to be stopped. Came last but it was good nasty fun.

Tried Kingdomino and that was interesting. I won which was surprising

Had a trundle around Reading Gaol in a Rivers of London Scenario trying to stop the ghost who was the subject of Oscar Wilde's The Ballard of Reading Gaol causing havoc.

And Apples to Apples was fun. There was a three way battle for the lead which was exciting.

Steak and Ale pie for lunch and Crispy Cake for dessert. Also Log Cake and Champagne.

Got bus back and was near station for around 20:00. Juist had time to buy KFC meal and the staff were nice before getting into station and onto train.

Have more books to read for the year

So popped into town to post a letter and transfer some money to my mum's account. Had a look at one of the book shops called W H Smith and they have a 3 CD set. Siouxsie and the Banshees rare broadcast recordings. Never saw this advertised. It must be mine ! An now it is.

Popped into M+S and they had oodles of scones so I bought some. The drought is over again.

8 years ago had to get a new computer. And thus began the battle against Microsoft Solitaire and the five games. Klondike, Spider, Freecell, Pyramid and Tri Peaks. Managed to complete all the challenge games for each in Star Club but Freecell and Tri Peaks until today. It was only three games but the most difficult setting.

The sale of my late father-in-law's house by my wife's estate (hint: not exactly me, legally, but I had to do the paperwork stuff) seems finally to have gone through.

 

Advice: try not to be involved with a real estate transaction in which the title company tries to push the paperwork through after 4PM Pacific Time on the Friday before a three-day weekend.  Yeeeeeesh.
