And I’m back…

So, after a couple of year hiatus (due to a small cute thing) I’ve come back to gaming at my local club, and for my sins taken back up the Caretaker post again. After four years away from the committee the club’s terrain is in worse condition than I could have hoped, however on the plus side their bank balance is healthy so I’ve got plenty to play with to turn that around.

Which begs the question when your supplying a regular attendance in the mid-forties what do you do first. My choice (maybe showing a bit of OCD) was to tidy and by that I mean open every box, assess each piece of terrain for damage, then sort & re-label the best bits into boxes for continued use & record a repair priority for the box. After an eight-hour stint of this I got through about two thirds of the club’s terrain, and realised two things. First: I have made an f-ton of terrain for [elg], Second and more usefully: This is going to take a while to repair/refurbish.

Also weighing on the club is that they’ve now moved to a new venue that hasn’t yet proved secure storage, and that the club’s gaming boards are now further away from the main hall than in the old venue also there a bit tired looking & very heavy (as my sore back can attest).

Hmm so lots to do… but on the plus side lots to blog about :)

Cheers
