Soooo what's everyone been up to lately?

Me? Same old really.. busy busy.. working mostly.. Most of my spare time is spend playing games, working on the site and spending time with my wife.

School, dragging around, getting into the world of RC planes (I'm sure you guys will get a kick out of my first flight if I can get a copy of the video) and generally taking the Christmas break slow.

I've been getting some hours at work which is always good but temporarily dropping normal routine. Haven't written anything (which I miss), programmed (also miss) or played any gigs (again, I miss it) for weeks. I haven't even had a chance to get a game of 40K in. I must get back into my hobbies again.

I have been eating a hell of a lot of turkey though!

Yeah I hear you.. I just don't have time for hobbies anymore.. I get up at 7:30.. go to work for 8:30.. get off at 5:00.. pick my wife up, by the time we get home and eat dinner it's 6:30.. by then I want to sit on my ass and relax

I haven't played my guitar in like a year.. I do get to do some design web work while I am at work, but I am now on system support so I am supporting a bunch of applications here, so I don't get much time for application design and development.

When are you starting your University Scott?

Time is tough to find. It's probably not a good idea that I'm taking up yet another hobby then

September. Not for a while yet. I'll still be around here during that time of course

Have fun with that

You better, I'm looking at setting up some roles on the main site, to perhaps allow some additional writers for off-Battlefront 3 topics. You, of course would have first dibs if you're still interested.

Me: Been busy playing some Battlefield 3 and making a custom skirmish map for Empire at War. School starts on Monday next week but I don't get to go, I have a dental appointment (getting ready to get my wisdom teeth strapped out of my mouth).

I used to have an RC plane before it crash landed into a tree... several times.

What sort of RC plane do you fly?

I've been doing my Masters year at University. I spent a lot of time in lab last semester and currently revising for exams. Spent Christmas with the family but didn't stay for very long, came back up to Leeds for new year celebrations with friends. Also training for a Olympic length Triathlon.

What is this? An obligation?

When you need someone to write let me know

More like a privledge

You're probably the only one besides myself I would let near the main site. It's my baby.

Can't say that I have even flown a plane before.. sounds fun though.

Then I am both disturbed and honoured.

If I can get out flying this weekend I'll make sure to actually get a flight video. So much wind, snow and cold weather makes it hard.

Why disturbed?

Sounds good

Because I imagined you slowly stroking a cat when you said,

Ah..

I just meant that I put a lot of work into getting the site where it is, it's hard to let anyone else do anything.
