      <description>Post Christmas Amazon Prime Video hopping and I came across Secret Level.  OMG! Also, my Christmas swag list.</description>
      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Post Christmas, technically still on boxing day, I was a bit bored late at night and looking through videos on Amazon Prime.  I spotted <a href="https://www.amazon.com/salp/secretlevel" target="_blank" >Secret Level</a>, having seen clips of Warhammer on Youtube and thought I&rsquo;d watch that on my 4K TV screen for kicks.  But, I didn&rsquo;t know it was a series!  First episode running , and like 13 minutes in and I&rsquo;m screaming, &ldquo;It&rsquo;s Tiamat!&rdquo;</p>
<p><img alt="Secret Level - Tiamat" loading="lazy" src="/posts/2024/12/27/tiamat.png"></p>
<p>Daughter 2, quite unimpressed says flatly, &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know who that is.&rdquo;  I&rsquo;m like, &ldquo;Queen of evil dragons!  Chromatic dragons!&rdquo; She goes back to her ipad, still unimnpressed.  LOL.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve got a whole series of wild things to watch now. Thanks Amazon!</p>
<p>Speaking of Christmas, our Christmas and Boxing day cooking went flawlessly and pressies were all well received . I got:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.fender.com/en-GB/acoustic-guitars/dreadnought/cd-60sce-dreadnought-all-mahogany/0970113022.html?rdl=true" target="_blank" >A Fender CD-60SCE</a> Dreadnought Electro Acoustic Guitar, All Mahogany. I&rsquo;ve been asking for one of these for half a decade!</li>

<li>Reese&rsquo;s Pieces.</li>
<li>A gift card for a Isolation Tank session in Reading. Looking forward to trying that!</li>
</ul>
<p>The only rubbish part of this season is that I&rsquo;ve got far less holiday/vacation than normal.  I worked Monday, took Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday off, but I&rsquo;m working on Friday.  I&rsquo;ll not work on New Years Day next week, and also take off the 7th the week after as I&rsquo;ve got my 10th tattoo that day.</p>
<p>And in other news:</p>
<ul>
<li>Work <em>seems</em> to be going well.  My current client has a LOT of future work in the pipeline and I&rsquo;m happy to keep doing it for them as long as they want to keep paying me!</li>
<li>Still waiting for my new car.  Or even news from Kia about it.</li>
</ul>
