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)
This is the usual pivot-post. Ease you in with some games, teach you how to bake, and finish up with some light food criticism. Bon appétit It (still) Takes Two? Yes, we are still playing It Takes Two. It also takes enough time that we’ve got plenty more to play. I have been slightly side-tracked…

Normality
I’m suffering at the hands of an essay…this was part of an entry destined to be published three weeks ago. Needless to say, it didn’t happen, but it is happening now. If nothing else, it may distract you from the fact I haven’t been very active on here recently. Enjoy this unrelated picture of condescending…

The 2nd PC Building Issue
Welcome to the 2nd PC Building Issue! It’s finally here! The second PC building issue, and what an issue it is. Instead of rehousing an old computer, like my media centre project, it’s a new computer built from scratch. And the first project for Newforge Computers! As usual, I started out at bit-tech/Custom PC. Since…

A Second Preamble
This computer building request came out of nowhere really, and I hadn’t expected to be building any new computers this summer. I had worked on most of Trevor’s computers in the past, and let me tell you, they certainly provided me with some work. The problems would have the oddest presentations, and often become more…
