Hi all,
The January gloomies have struck. Christmas is over and there is nowhere to go, no sales to rummage through for bargains with friends and family. There is trouble at the UK ports (Brexit-itus), the Scottish National Party want to have another border with England and cast their lot in with the EEC again, I'm not sure how that would work out for tourism though if they went back to Euros.
There is still trouble in the States (Voting-itus), I hope everything calms down there. Not to mention Jab-itus. I do not understand why people are skeptical about well researched vaccines. Apparently, 40% of French folk do not want it. It's got to be better than the possible alternative, which is dying, right ? I am being good, going out for the occasional bout of "fresh air" walking around the streets of Brummagem and getting shopping done at the same time.
I have just finished a wargame, so that is going to be in production next. The photos will need cropping and text typed, as per usual.
A great big thanks to all the Vloggers on you tube that have kept me sane through this last year. Here are a few for you to try out if you don't know them.

That should keep you going for a bit.
Regards to one and all. Stay safe.

P.S. Bonus - I have just had hit number 8601. Better than a slap in the face with a wet mackerel.
