List again!

As it's the season for folk committing to getting things done, I thought I'd dust off the list I prepared back in October and see where I'd got to. After an initial splurge of activity I lost focus for a few weeks. So not only did I get my Resolutions in early, I also dropped them early!

To be fair to myself, I did spend a fair bit of time on getting number 14 done - preparing the New Year campaign. I actually did better than that. I ran the campaign too. I'll give myself a medal.

I started chipping away at getting the French SYW flags done. However, that's been on the back-burner for a few weeks now. And I also made good progress on the 6 and 10mm village people, sheep and pack animals. But they're not complete, so that's 4 tasks in an unfinished state. The Puritan side of my mind is nagging me to get it done. But my cavalier side is looking at more interesting things to do. I would rather play with my toys - I enjoyed doing the big campaign deciding battle The Battle of Plauen

In idle moments today and yesterday I've been pondering another Italian campaign (WPS or WAS era) and getting out the craft knife to carve a black-powder era artillery urban fortification ('Vauban fortress' in plainer English). I actually dug up some maps for the Italian campaign on the Royal Collection Trust last night.

Anyway, here's the updated list. Re-ordered so it doesn't look like I've done things out of the correct order.

Tentative Order	Job

2	Check stock of magnetic paper and bases
4	Paint houses
3	Order storage boxes

By the way, item 20 is stalled due to them being (temporarily) unavailable on the Irregular website, though I note that the individual components are available.
