Back to work.
An email at work announcing a new era of timely email service now the firewall has been updated also heralded an unprecedented number of my bookmarks becoming "403 Forbidden" screens. I have had to resort to blogging from home, which means weekly if I'm good.
Red Lightning.*
Last night Dave, Jimbo, Simon and I played Primetime Adventures. It was fun and funny, quite a lot of self control was required to keep beverages out of noses. Our television show is called "The Last Prophecy" and we will be playing the pilot next week. Our protagonists are the new Department of Portents staff, replacing the corrupt civil servants who were exploiting the King's desire for prophetic advantage to fund their gravy train.
The head of the DoP is Konrad, a stoic Captain of the Guard who blew the whistle on the previous regime and was rewarded for his diligence with the thankless task of resurrecting the disreputable office. He is joined by Kurt von Stahk, a foppish aristocrat whose rising career has been maliciously sidetracked into the department by a conniving uncle; and Phoebe Avonova, a former cat burglar who was saved from the gallows by an amazing portent and has become a firm believer in the power of the Last Prophecy.
*A working title - remember it for the trivia quiz.
Important information.
Did I mention how much fun it is when Emma visits? Because it is remarkable how much fun it is when she does. (She's back at Pirate Cove now.)

PTA is almost certainly playable over Skype. There's very little in the way of tangibles (doesn't use dice, does use some tokens and regular playing cards).

My Skype's majigger is called 'Christopher Thomas'. It knows a majigger called 'Dave Versace' and another called 'emmajeans'.
