25th February 2018 Back still bad. I'm still miserable. At least I awoke to mod of the month for December.
All good I suppose. Work in the morrow(ind) and lots of other things to do. If this blog had been around longer I would have made a Straw poll to see which ruin should be done next.

Wasn't going to post today but a pod cast we made with DarkElfGuy late last year has popped up on youtube so here it is;

Not particularly expecting anyone to actually read this so I'm not going to give a flying fook about anything.
I am going to start this off with a recap of my week and end it with a plan (that I wont keep) for the upcoming week ahead. Monday morning started my week after a nice relaxing Sunday that the wife and I spent mostly naked watching Netflix after Netflix. 7 a.m. start. No Morrowind for me! The day was bloody freezing and foggy and by 8 a.m I was in the town centre in an old Tudor style pub sanding down my trowels before I re-plastered a couple of walls. By about 3 p.m. I felt like someone had beaten me with a stick and all I could think about was a hot bath and fingers crossed a massage from the wife. (not that kind you dirty minded fooker). I finally arrived home, it was freezing cold and empty. Wife still at work for several more hours and then bath was calling me. On went the bath and I sat at my PC playing catch up while it filled up. Six inches of water and I couldn't wait. Off came the kit and I lay as flat as I could while the hot water burned my toes and feet. Loved it. Then, the evil started. The damn boiler had tripped and freezing water was spurting out of the tap! I quickly sat up and promptly turned it off while suffering from sever turrets. (or however you spell that). Such was my need to submerge myself in nice hot water I hadn't realised the wife had removed the towels for washing and my dressing gown and not replaced them. I had to do it. I leapt from the water and bravely ran to the boiler, dripping, cold, naked. There I "un-tripped" it and ran back to the bath and stepped into something I can only describe as lava. Back on went the hot water and resumed my smile and commenced relaxation. After 10 more minutes the water was nice and deep and hot as a hot thing in hot land. I lean up to turn off the tap and just like a 70's sketch in a comedy the tap came off in my hand... I sat up straight and tried and tried to turn the little nib thing but no way was it having it. A few minutes later and I had a full blown case of turrets and was starting to burn. I unplugged the bath, got out and of course, hadn't grabbed a clean towel so was left again, dripping, naked, cold. I ran downstairs and searched through my tool bag for a spanner and then realised I had left them all at the job... The wife came home to a lovely site. My bare arse starring at her from the kitchen floor with my balls gently swaying between my legs while the rest of me was under the sink swearing and cursing at the stop cock while trying to turn off the mains water without a spanner.
This was only Monday... Tuesday was slightly better. Only left work with what I think is a trapped nerve in my neck that has left me almost incapable of playing or modding anything on my PC. Wednesday I tried. I really did. I actually got up, went to a job and then had to return by lunch time stiffer than an overdose of Viagra. Thursday. Didn't bother. Got up. Got dressed. Had paracetamol for breakfast then started to make something I'd never attempted before. A sword. It's now Friday. The sword is pretty much made and was of course nice and easy to model but hours and hours of time UV mapping and finding textures. It sucks. Will never do it again. Here it is so far;
