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

The phone saga continues: To Argos!
The long awaited (for me, anyway) phone call from Argos came today, with a vague message simply stating that my phone has arrived in store.
