If you were given an hour to devote to wargaming activity what would you use those 60 minutes to achieve.
Paint an army? Read a book? Make an on table  decision? Carry out a piggy chase? Sort out all of your paints?

I'm happy to grab 30 minutes in a day to paint, so a whole hour would be wonderful.

But of course those of us in Europe have just "lost" an hour, with the clicks going forward this morning,  unless Piggy Towers is in its own time zone?  :D

When I have an hour for wargaming purposes I will do any of the following depending on circumstances: carry out a move or two if I have a game up; carry on painting either troops or scenic items; order some figures, scenic items, paints or hobby tools, books or rules. Reading is normally a bedtime activity for me.

Strangely, despite the change in the clocks I still woke up at 6:15 CEST.

I did grab a short time the other night and did indeed sort out my paints.  I had too many "tubes" of paint from hobby craft that were a pain to use.  I had kept some Benecol bottles that I had kept so squeezed the contents into them. They are wonderful for this as they seal tight as well. Also painted the tops of all the bottles with the paint. Makes it a lot easier to see at a glance which colour is which.

I try (sometime fail) to do 30 mins a night right before sleep to calm down after the day. The Mrs watches TV/youtube but that often annoys me.

It's a very good system to have IMO if you have space to keep things out/a way to reset quickly each day.
