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

  • Cakes, Cooking, and the demise of CDs

    Not quite CDs, but disc-based media… I’ve been a bit busy since the last post. Trips to Manchester and Waterford, and a rather unseasonable heatwave. Oh and a change in prime minister too. A lot has happened in a relatively short period of time. But first, let’s jump back eight years… Red Dead Redemption 2…

  • On the Road Again

    The beginning of the Irish chronicle. Our epic journey started in Plymouth with an easy two hour drive to Bristol airport one sunny Saturday afternoon. An easy drive hasn’t been guaranteed the last couple of months due to the Curse of the Acoustic Foam! No, it’s not a campy B-movie, but instead an attempt by…

  • Gardening and a (It’ll be) Grand Tour

  • Ads, or ad-free: what do you think?

    It was brought to my attention a while back by Aaron (who’s blog is here, if you’re interested, which you should be!) that ads were being displayed at the bottom of my blog posts. At first I didn’t believe him, as I was unable to see anything there, but when I tried from another computer, there…
