Office move

 As part of our merger, my department has had a small office move.  We now have two buildings, but we're staying in Plantation Place.  Our desks have been moved round the corner, and I now look out onto the Lloyd's building.

New game

 After a mammoth 2 years+ of playing d&d we're taking a break and going to take it easy for a while by playing Basic Fantasy Role Play.  We've played it before a few times and is very similar to the original 1st addition dungeons and dragons. I thought i'd buy myself a copy.

Hail

 We had hail in Tonbridge yesterday

Much better today

Excitement on our street

There was a fire in one of the old people flats opposite our house this morning.  3 fire engines and an ambulance were called and they had to use a cherry picker attachment on one of the engines to stretcher an old lady out through her smashed window.

Tarasque killers

 We fought two tarasques last night in a one off battle with our level 20 characters!  We beat them!

Tiamat fully painted

 We handed over a fully painted Tiamat to our GM last night and he was chuffed to bits.  Sarah did a great job in painting it.  It's absolutely massive!

Sunday roast

 We met one of the other rugby families out for a roast on Sunday.  The Rock Inn, Chiddingstone.  It was great fun.

A whole chicken, 3 ribs of beef and a shoulder of lamb

Hook the ring on the bulls nose game

Saturday cooking

 I made roasted chicken breast with dauphinoise potatoes (used the new mandoline) on Saturday.  Not a bad attempt.

I wasn't a bad rugby player

 When clearing out the shed I showed the kids all the trophies i'd won when I was a kid (including one of Steve's that I have for some reason).  Player of the year, clubman of the year, players player and a 2nd team player of the year.  Not bad.

We cleared the shed out on Saturday

 Quite hard work lifting all the heavy stuff down from the garden and out the front.  A few people asked to take some bits but the rest was taken away this morning by a removal firm.  The idea is to referb the shed, insulate it, new floors, windows and patio doors.  We can then use the garden more.
