Syridian — Tue, 19 May 2009 22:38:00 +0000

So I have just found out that the Barony of Storm Hold is holding the next College war, and I’m kinda interested in going, but does it make me a big old lecherouss pervert? Maybe if I offer to teach Pewter Casting or something? I mean… it’s not like I’m going down there to perv on all the young collegians, thats just an added benefit.

Anyway, Some Basic details are below, but head over to the baronys website to check out all of the details.

Well, actually the Nuttyness is me staying up until 1am casting tokens for College War… Tokens that I’m kinda not really into making, even though I promised I would. The good thing is that part of the deal was that I would supply them straight from the mould, with no cleaning up of the flashing. What are these tokens? Hmm You’ll have to wait and see… Tis a surprise for the College War attendee’s.

Though I will stick up photo’s on my Flickr on say.. maybe.. possibly… around… in a round about way… say… Tuesday.

Getting the most out of nothing much…

Ahhh… It’s so good to be able to spend a weekend doing not much. After the last 3 weeks where I was in Sydney for 2 weekends, with all the driving and the visiting and the well… missing out on doing… ummm…. nothing…

So this weekend I had a lazy Friday night (I was meant to go to the Pirate night at the Uni, but well… A better offer presented itself, and I spend a lazy night chatting and watching umm… something on DVD. Saturday was slightly more energetic with 2 hours volunteering at the Archery Club moving paver’s, can’t wait to see how it comes out. In the afternoon I hung out washing, and sorted some stuff to make more than just a walk way through my bedroom.

Sunday I spent doing not much… followed by a little more washing, some sorting through stuff, and then moving a trailer and hacking off some bits of it so that a new towing frame can be constructed for it. All in all it was a very lazy weekend… though I am looking forward to the town archer weekend next weekend. I might even turn up to Pot Luck feast, if I can be arsed to get some food together for it.

As for this coming week, I need to finish off the soapstone mould for the College War Tokens, and then cast 50-60 of them when the pewter arrives. The mould I started whilst teaching a pewter casting class in Rowany is surprisingly OK by my standards, so I just need to add a little more detail, and cast a large batch in the next week or ten days. Whilst it’s a little flimsy for my liking, it still does work as intended so should be fine to be used as a small token for college war.
