I wouldn't blame you if you were thinking that not much has been happening at the workbench over the last week or so. This is due to an avalanche of work related things including an Ofsted inspection, end of term assessments and extra hours, combined with family related distractions involving a visit by my father and a weekend away at the Six Nations rugby match in Cardiff.
I've also got a horrible chest infection and cold, which has knocked me for six and won't bugger off. All of this has completely scuppered my plan to get the Napoleonic Royal Navy fleet painted by the end of term, so instead I'm going to take the models with me on holiday and paint them in Brittany, perhaps even squeezing in a game or two of Nick Jones excellent rules, albeit with unfinished ships. Sounds like a plan!
