I had hoped for a much more joyous post than this for my first one back, but the simply fact of the matter is that sadly James, myself and the Castle will not be appearing at Salute this weekend. Essentially we are all physically well, but both of us are battling with ongoing mitigating factors that have put paid to any sort of hobby time of late.
We are so desperately sorry and didn't want to let anyone down, hoping to attend right up until the end, but the fact is we are simply not able to make this work for us at the moment. I still hope to share the Castle with a wider audience at some point, but loathed to make any promises at the moment for fear of letting you all down again.
I miss, terribly, the interactions and friendships that this most humble of weblogs has spawned and my heartfelt thanks to all those that have reached out or offered support; I hope that, before too long, to find myself back at the helm, but until then I hope that you all stay safe and well.

Michael, firstly it’s nice to read that you are well. I hope things in your personal life sort themselves out and that you can find time for hobby and to show your progress off here in the near future!
ReplyDeleteTbh its just good to hear from you Michael. I will though obviously miss your excellent company at this weekend's Salute, and hope to see your work on display in the AHPC - if there is one this year? My very best regards and well wishes.
ReplyDeleteI am in Australia so wouldn't have been at Salute in any event - but I send my best wishes to you anyway!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you are ok!
ReplyDeleteSadly and strange times...
Have you thought abut making a Youtube film f a game?
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are ok Michael and I really hope things are moving in the right direction. Take care and remember this crazy little virtual community is here to support 👍
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you and James are safe and well, shall miss coming to see you at Salute, and hope life settles down soon for you my friend.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you are doing ok. Hoping that you get some time for these projects again.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you're well, Michael. Looking forward to future posts.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you post again Michael. It was becoming a bit disconcerting that we hadn't heard from you or seen any posts for such a long time. Salute is not an event I am able to attend, being across the pond as I am, but even if I was able too, the darn pandemic is making everyday things that much more of a challenge. Take care, & I am sure we all look forward to seeing you back to blogging & hobbying soon! Hobbies are like a faithful hound. They will wait!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear your well at least,there is no hurry with the game,we can see it when you're good and ready!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
I'm glad you are well. I was worried that something bad might have happened to you. I miss your wonderful, creative blog posts. All the best, Karl
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing some pics of the set up once your able to take them.

It's just nice top hear from you mate, I was getting a little concerned, so good to know you are all right, I fully understand if life is hectic that you put hobby stuff on the back burner, I wont be at Salute as I still don't feel ready to go to any crowded events yet.
ReplyDeleteStay safe and well mate, as said above you are missed but we can wait till you're ready come back.
Cheers Roger
Welcome back Michael and also very nice to read that you are well and kicking.Looking forward reading your next post.Take care
ReplyDeleteSuch sad news for many I suspect, but you and James have real lives too and you both shouldn't be too disappointed, there are more important things in life. It is good to 'hear' from you and I hope you and yours are all well.
ReplyDeleteYou have been missed Sir M. Such a shame all that hard work you both put into the castle cannot be displayed yet. The time will come and we'll all see it either in the flesh or on your blog. Looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're well, Michael! I've missed seeing your work.
ReplyDeleteThat both of you are well is what counts Michael & there's always next year 😊
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Happy to hear that you are OK.
ReplyDeleteWell, You're all still ok and the castle is in the requisite number of pieces. So that's all good. There'll be other occasions. Possibly more than one ?

I'm just happy to hear that you're well. I so enjoy your blog. Hope that you're able to get back to gaming soon. Glad to have you back!
ReplyDeleteI am assuming the mitigating factors you are referring to is the pandemic. Things are getting worse again back where I am at. The Sinovac vaccine is wearing off faster. Luckily me and the missus are getting appointments for a Pfitzer booster shot. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteTake care Michael, no need to rush the castle will survive the Teeth of Time a while longer yet.
