Since I’ve left the Munquis there’s been something of a shake-up in the tree. They now have a new GM. They’re actively recruiting. And generally getting their act together, even organising non-raid events. Good on them. I’m still considering my position in the Bad Apples as a “2 month trial” period to see if we [...]
In January I got the results of my “well man” blood tests. As I feared I have high cholestorol, not enough to warant going on statins, but enough to worry about. The Nurse also suggested I needed to lose half a stone (7 lbs), though I’m convinced that that was her misunderstanding just how heavy [...]
Last night was my first “real” raid with the Bad Apples, not a random cross-guild invite, not a “lets do the weekly quest”, not a “lets see if we can down the first boss”. But an honest to goodness scheduled, we’re going to clear the first wing of ICC with a 10 man team. I [...]

In a desperate last ditch attempt to do the weekly raid quest I once again joined a pickup group that was advertising on the trade channel. The usual Brewfest Regalia puzzles ensued, easily sorted. I was accused of being a Role Player, she’s a RPer i’m guessing , though why I’d be on Darkspear and not [...]
So continuing with the Bad Apples…… On Friday I got asked if I’d like to go to a continuation raid of Icecrown Citadel 10 man. I turned it down because it meant that I wouldn’t get the weekly raid (Marrowgar must die) as they had already passed him. I’ll come back to that in a [...]
This weekend we took the pony out to Escrick park for his second pleasure ride of the season. There was a lot of doubt about whether we were going to attend; first of all we didn’t receive any maps or ride details leading us to suspect that it had been called off, and then the [...]
