My review of GURPS third edition revised, was published on RPG.net, making it the first game I have given 5/5 for style and substance in 108 reviews - and this is despite being quite aware of its flaws (not least the name). Currently working on a review of Dark Heresy which should be finished in a day or two, which will not be rated as highly. Apropos, finished our chapter of Dark Heresy in actual play for the year, perhaps will be starting again in a few month's time, depending on our GMs level of enthusiasm. Will also review Call of Cthulhu and Horror on the Orient Express this week, hopefully all in time for the next issue of RPG Review. In this matter ran another excellent session of Horror on the Orient Express on Thursday night, sending one of the player characters off to an asylum in the Bulgarian mountains, as they fruitlessly searched for the head of the Sedefkar Simulcrum. One player couldn't make and must have been a little confused with the SMS at the end of the night: "Your character has lost an eye, has gone insane, and has a Turkish lover". The final scene for the night had a certain stalking vampire trying to hypnotise Hercule Poirot with the wonderful lines: It's hot inside. Why not open a window, let some air in? Let me in. It's hot inside.
Engaged in a couple of social activities over the weeked; went to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
caseopaya's staff christmas function which was bountifully supplied, and found myself enjoying "a few" glasses of red. After spending more than part of the following day recovering, went out the following evening to catch up with Adrian A., and several others engaging in the same activity. I haven't seen Adrian in around twenty years since he moved to London, so it was certainly a worthwhile evening. Today went to the Unitarians post-service, for the opportunity to catch up with Marg C., and Anne K., both of whom were receiving life membership for their many years of involvement in said institution - I think it is well over 100 years between them. They are both stalwarts of that organisation who truly understand the need for an interfaith religious liberalism and secularism above all else in the context of that church. Afterwards attended their poetry and music group, where I gave a recitation derived from Peter Gabriel's Rhythm of the Heat (Youtube, brilliantly combined with Princess Mononoke).
