Split Slate and Fiction
A little bit of gaming, and a little bit of DIY. The dry stone walling workshop at Quince Honey Farm was fun, and though the stones were heavy, the detail was light. The most important messages I took away were to just give it a try. And backfill. Lots of backfill. In this context it’s…

Reading on a Deadline
Because what better way is there to relax than a threat of impending confiscation… The Library No, I’m not talking about your Steam Library. Or your PlayStation catalogue. We are discussing brick-and-mortar (and sometimes chassis in the case of vans) libraries. I have an on-again, off-again relationship with the library system. It was a convenient…

Travels and (Almost) Total Solar Eclipse
There are plenty of reasons to holiday in the Catalan capital. Sangria. Tapas. Gaudi. Xocolate. Our summer holiday was a re-do of last years washed out trip to Barcelona. Surely it couldn’t rain the entire time in August? Thankfully this time we only got an hour or so over the duration of the holiday. X…

On February 14th 1929, All Capone’s south side (Chicago, if you weren’t aware) gang murdered 7 north side gang members, execution style, in what became known as the Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre. And…

City Hospital
Belfast City Hospital and the stairs…oh the stairs This entry has been dragging on and on, and I haven’t had the time to work on it. Last week began with a fencing competition. And there I hoped it would end. I believe it was the second worst I have ever done at a competition; second…

Pathology and Projects
Before I even start writing, I’ve had a special request from a friend that I am to pass out to you all. Go and hug your mothers! They are very important people, and you should give them the appreciation they deserve. You never know what will happen in this world, so make the most of…
