Mrs Bat is on business in Antwerp, and I have two days in the Executive Lounge of the Hilton, to:-
- finish an expanded version of my "To the Strongest" Lite Rules
- sort out the deployment for the enlarged Thapsus Game, next Sunday
- design a Caesarian campaign, set in North Africa, that is suitable for non-gamers
The Executive Lounge is very nice; unlimited coffee, beers and soft drinks, and food turns up from time to time. There is a Happy Hour in the early evening. The only downside is the Muzak, which is ghastly; at the time of writing a CD of Orchestral versions of Simon and Garfunkel is stuck and looping endlessly through the same line of "Rosemary and Thyme". It could be a long 48 hours...
