Were you out in the thunder? I was up a hill at the Zoo near a huge radio tower.

There were no visible flashes, and while we were near stampede-friendly wildlife there weren't really enough of them to get it going. It didn't encourage most of the animals to come out and be seen - notable exception the polar bear.

But fun was had, pictures were taken, a Steller's Sea Eagle showed off particularly well, Fleur was very happy and active, and Lily (new favourite word: "hello", always sounding a bit surprised) demonstrated that she could walk with occasional riding and carrying for quite a while. Hopefully this will be reflected in the test results for possibly lowering her oxygen requirement.

In other news, Sir Christopher Lee should have been knighted a good twenty years ago.

And in gaming news, Pink Floyd is not very helpful backing music to SF-horror-war RPGs. And I keep having Star Trek ideas now which don't help either.

I'd buy that :)

He'd be my choice for a themetune composer for my Fading Suns game I think (my players lean toward 'Knights of Cydonia' by Muse but I'd like something more like 'Last of the Mohicans' crossed with McCreary's work on BSG)

The Traveller thing was fun, I left the CD player on pause and then at the crucial moment asked a player to press 'play'.
