All quiet on the western front...

A slow start to the gaming year so far, I don't think I've played a game yet. Several distraction have gotten in the way - A new hobby I'm delving into is metal detecting, I'm not sure what drove me to get into it perhaps watching some cool finds on Youtube most likely. Every 2 cent piece I find brings me closer to retirement and even finding useless metal crap is kind of fun.

Video games are frowned upon by the miniature painting gods and I've sinned terribly. It will take much willpower to break away from that vice.

Family history has also been taking up some time as I've been researching my Great Grandfathers military record, this has proven to be somewhat of a disappointment as his career in the army was a short one. He spent about 6 months getting to the front in France and I believe took part in the Battle of Fromelle which seems to have been a military disaster was wounded and captured.
