If gaming isn’t a part of your life, you’re doing it wrong.

  • Isle Trotting

    This be a holding post…be ye warned Waterford I popped across the Irish Sea to do some work in Waterford last weekend. The flight was delayed and we ended up being the airport stragglers, left stranded almost an hour after the rest of the occupants had vacated. It isn’t the most comfortable place to be…

  • Madeira (Escaping the Rain)

    Trying to cope with the British weather? Why bother. Just leave already. That was our approach over half term. Why stick it out when you can leave for sunnier climes. I believe the upper classes refer to it as “over-wintering”, but five days away hardly a season makes. Geography lesson. You may think that Madeira…

  • Once More with Gusto (and Games)

  • Yet another busy week

    What haven’t I done this week? First, I was partnered up with another medical student for the 2nd week of my ophthalmology placement based in the Royal. Where was the clinic on the first day? Daisy Hill…in Newry. Our consultant just happened to have a clinic on every Monday there, which was just great. Of…

  • The Blog Strategy

    I have a dream. Not really a dream, more of an idea. Even to call it an idea is a bit strong, so lets call it a strategy. I am a huge WordPress fan, and I enjoy the whole blogging experience here. It is just so simple to add new content, even for those who…
