Looks

Although I wouldn’t say looks were particularly important to me I do find that in WoW I prefer the looks of Gnomes and Draenei. I take some care with my character creation and with Flowersz I found that despite trying different “hairstyles” on her I ended up going back to my very original choice, the [...]

Almost a week in..

So I’ve been a Bad Apple for not quite a week, most of which has been spent waiting for the armory to update my guild so I could gain access to the forums. My very first impressions? Remember though this is from less than a week’s worth of impressions with not a lot of “down-time” [...]

French

It’s taken as a given in the UK that the French are “touchy” about their language and don’t like it when it’s not used correctly. This is in any sort of “formal” activity, I suspect that they are generally quite pleased when an ignorant englishman makes the effort to actually speak it. The question that [...]

getting on my wick

How come the armory updates your gear within seconds of logging out, but takes days to spot that you have changed guild, huh?

Seedling

I got accepted into the Bad Apples this weekend despite a real stinker of a guild application. I’m quietly happy that I was accepted.  I’m moderately familiar with this guild from joint raids and I’m fairly sure that I’ll get along. The guild chat is at about the right level for an baldy “liberal” like me, [...]

Big Step

Well, I’ve done it, I’ve quit the Munquis on my main. I put out a couple of feelers and I’ve had a bite , so I shan’t be guildless for long.

Scared

I just want to write this so I have something to remind me, already it’s fading. Woke up this morning knowing that there might be some snow, and looking out the window, yes, there it was. A thin coating on the ground outside the house. Nothing too serious, the main road is certain to be [...]

yawn

Didn’t do much this weekend… Bailed out on a Pit of Saron group – the tank was getting on my nerves and I left when we wiped on “Itchy and Scratchy”. I’m not proud, but the tank kept saying learn the tactics on Garfrost and then didn’t give any hints on the second boss. Pugged into [...]

I Got A Silver Machine.

AKA Casper the pony. First “ride” of the season, and pretty much as expected, he was pulling all the way. Even on the last part when he was on his own he thought that 20Kph was a sensible speed for roadwork.  Just need to work on our fitness now so we can up the distance [...]

Tired?

Last night’s raid has reminded me how much I really enjoy raiding with the Munquis. Unfortunately things are going quiet on that front with low attendance, certainly mine. Because I ride a motorbike to work; if the weather’s looking like it might contain snow I have to use the train and that means I don’t [...]
