Dungeons and what-now? Still?

Just spent another weekend role-playing with some old university buddies (basically being playing with this group since we all graduated - at least 10 years ago, now).

We're still playing Dungeons and Dragons (now edition 3.5, as owned by Wizards of the Coast) but the technology has moved on with us - the party now all store their characters in PCGen an open-source character tool (with burgeoning aspirations for DMs, too).

On top of that, various members of the party have set up a wiki so as to be able to properly store the various facts/thoughts/theories as to what exactly the DM is up to.

Life can be good! :)

What a fabulous weekend

Where we are the weather was good (mostly) and we had friends staying.

On Saturday after a morning of clearing up the front garden (chatting with the friend staying with us about his computer company (RealFlair.com - worth a look) we went to a mutual friends party and were rather delighted/surprised to find, unexpectedly, that our son's Godfather (well one of them) was there up from London for the day!

Then, on the Sunday, the couple staying with us (rather than come with us to church) offered to cook Sunday lunch! :) In the afternoon the weather was so good that Ted had his first dip in a paddling pool!

So much to say, so little time...

Um, that's it, really. Sorry.
