Nothing cheers up a drab January day like a new book, which I purchased at New Year. Almost two centuries on, the genius of Utagawa Kuniyoshi is as undiminished and inspirational as ever.

Having a few days away for my wedding anniversary. But there’s still time to get out my travelling paint brushes and plan some very small games of #WhenTheLastSwordIsDrawn
In a bath of Dettol after 40 years in a box. Progress, of a kind! #OrientalHeroes #WhenTheLastSwordIsDrawn
A group of rōnin arrive at a seemingly abandoned shrine. Clearly, drawing their swords is their first (but maybe not last) mistake... #WhenTheLastSwordIsDrawn #SpreadTheLard #BonsaiBonkers

Joined Geoff & Dave at #CLWC for a game of #TestofHonour. It was a fun flowing system with lots of action. Successfully managed to get most of my retinue slaughtered while trying to do the honourable thing. It mage me want to have another go of @roundwoodsworld.bsky.social’s #WhentheLastSwordisDrawn
Cannot believe this is two years ago! I have no excuses and must get this set up again and a game played. Might have rope in @sprandell.bsky.social and @roundwoodsworld.bsky.social to help me out.
