To Victory!
Well, I been making good on my promise to get more stuff painted. In fact, just this week I have painted up half of a 2000pt Ogre Army in preparation for today's tournament! Would have had longer, but I essentially only decide to enter it on Monday due to badgering from other clubbers :)
And overall, I think it worked out. I came roughly middle of the pack, and qualified to go through to the Yorkshire Open Tournament finals in March! To top it all off, I won Best Sportsman award for being an all round nice guy (or something...) :D
However, am a bit fed up of painting Ogres for the time being... so I'll start on something else. I have a High Elf commission to get on with after all... (only just had the test mini approved at the weekend anyway)
In terms of exercise, am doing a little better - walked halfway home twice this week, and on the other days have been walking a couple of stops before catching the bus. Also walked to and from the games club today - which is mostly uphill on the way there! I think the exercise is starting to pay off, although I'm hardly shedding the pounds I'm feeling less and less knackered after the walk (FYI I'm REALLY unfit at the moment).
Food wise I'm not much better - still snacking a fair bit but at least I'm mostly restricting it to healthier stuff like fruit and toast (no spread!). Well, apart from a bad patch in the middle of the week - curse you Somerfield and your special offer on Crunchies!
