House/Bloodbowl Update

Well, our house saga is reaching the mid-way point, now hopefully it will all be downhill from here (hmm, in a positive way!).

We have made an offer on the place in Dulwich Hill which has been accepted, and are now just waiting on the financial side of things to come through before exchanging contracts etc. Naturally this has involved racking up a tonne of bills, with more bills to come, for everything from building and pet inspections, conveyancing and even a deposit bond fee.

On the flipside, our place has made its debut and while we didn't get a huge number of people through thanks to school holidays, we are hopeful that it will not be on the market for too long before finding a buyer.

And now for the nerdy side of the post, yesterday was my first games with my new teams in the 3BL (Belltower Blood Bowl League), a new league with a number of people I have met and get along well with. It is a slightly oddball version of the game, very heavy on the house rules and also using an older version of the living rule book (short story: blood bowl rules are regularly updated).

Suzy and I headed up to Hornsby (she visited the shops and Herky), I went over to Galston to have a few games against Geoff Watson. My two teams, Undead and Dwarves, couldn't have performed more differently with the Undead playing brilliantly while the Dwarves not only got beaten badly, but also suffered two permanent injuries on the team which are going to cause me some long term issues.

It was certainly different, and I enjoyed the special play cards (although some seem pretty damn overpowered). I look forward to playing more games in this league, I feel much more positively about it than I did about the last, thanks to the absence of the unpleasant people involved in the WSGS league.
