Well, I know what I'm getting for Christmas! Look here-
https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/products/star-wars-the-roleplaying-game-30th-anniversary-edition/ Fantasy Flight, the company that produces the current incarnation of the Star Wars RPG, is doing a 30th Anniversary reprint of the West End Games Star Wars RPG first produced in 1987. The first edition of both the main rulebook and the sourcebook, completely and lovingly reproduced on high quality paper, hardcover and combined in a special slipcase. Most excellent.
Now if only they'd similarly reprint Galaxy Guide 6- Tramp Freighters...
In other news I am progressing, my finger has more or less lost it's alarming purple colouration and is looking almost normal. It's still very sore, but I think there's a better degree of movement now and the exercises don't hurt so much. I was also able to get my wedding ring back on the finger next to it which is a great relief. It's been a week since I last wore it and that's the longest time it's been off my finger since I was marrried over 8 years ago. Felt wrong not having it there.
We will have a quiet weekend, might pop over to the newly created Walthamstow Wetlands nearby tomorrow, but all we're going to do today is a bit of shopping for essentials and slob out. Last weekend I wanted something fun to watch (being quite shook up and sore all over) so we watched the extremely silly Kentucky Fried Movie. The Wife was amused by the "Fistful of Yen" sketch (and "Big Jim Slade") so expressed an interest in seeing the film it's based on, Enter the Dragon.
Just so happend the Fopp Records shop in London near where I work was selling the special edition for a few quid, so I picked it up and we will watch it this evening. One of the finest martial arts movies ever made and quite poignant in that Lee died a few weeks before it was released at the stupidly young age of 32.
That cat was, indeed, as fast as lightning.
