So, I'm sat here in Greece. The sun is shining (just) and I'm lounging on the patio, with a laptop on my knees and two dogs lying faithfully by my side, their heads following the toast in my hand. I'm wirelessly connected to my parents network, and hooked up to the internet via dial-up. I remember this dial-up thing. Its pretty slow, but still useable. Even the webcam seems to work pretty well over it (although a bit stuttery). So, I've logged on, checked the forums. I also checked the DKP site (bah, the bloody leaf HAD to drop last night, eh!). I'm now wondering what I'll do for the rest of the day. I've shipped my daughter off to her friends house. Quite handily, there is another English family that live in the same village as my parents, with a daughter who is exactly the same age as mine. Every time I bring my daughter here, the pair become inseperable and roam the streets of the village getting up to much mischief. They both enjoy each other's company, and its good to see Keeley off the computer for a while. Perhaps I should follow her lead? Hahahahahahahahaa...... hrmm.. Preparations for the Greek Easter celebrations are well under way - the whole village has been whitewashed, the fireworks have been prepared, and there is allegedly 11 kilos of high-explosive safely stored in a pile on someone's garden. The pigs have been cleaned, the goats are being distracted from the sharpening of knives and the chicken feed has been upped considerably. Should be a great feast ;) So, with all this relaxing to do, my mind wanders back to The Garrison. We've had a turbulent few weeks, but it looks like we've come out on top. There was a quick Officers meeting just before I left, and everyone seemed to be happy with how we're handling things. In the near future, I would hope that we get two Molten Core runs going per week. This is our immediate short-term goal. Of course, in the longer term we have more in mind. Particularly we would like to see Blackwing Lair become a reality. As soon as we can comfortably clear MC in one day (Sunday) that frees up Monday for our first few serious forays into Blackwing Lair. Additionally, AQ20 and ZG still need work. Cauthon and Tane have the strategies for AQ20 boss 2 worked out. Doubleuk ran through there with GoF and saw how they did it. I've been through there with Ashes and seen how they do it. Between us, we should be able to crack the second boss and move forwards. In Zul'Gurub, it appears to be the Panther boss that is currently the only block between us and Hakkar. Lets organise a few more wipe-fests in there, to crack her like the annoying cat she is, and move onto Hakkar and down his ass. In addition, Sgtginger should be gearing up to organise some regular PVP sessions so we can show the Horde exactly who The Garrison are. So guys (and gals), Have a GREAT time while I'm away - I'll be around on the forums of course. Don't do anything I wouldn't do, (so, you're all pretty clear there) and above all - play nicely.
