PB and J (Plymouth Brunch and Janners?)
Cocktail history and etymology. What’s not to like? RE9 Update After a terrifying start, we’re in the midst of a Leon-centric segment in Resident Evil Requiem. It’s a great game and not one we want to rush to completion. We’ve also had a smattering of Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty which has been a lot of…

A Few Good Days
Travelling, food, and other bits and pieces. We spent a week of the Easter holidays travelling the South coast of England, spending some time around Windsor (Legoland), Canterbury, and Rustington. It was a lot of driving, but with the Polestar 2 it didn’t feel like it. The only bits that were a little hairy were…

Cyberpunk, Tomb Raider and a Tipple
While RE9 continues to scare the living daylights out of me, I thought I’d pivot to something lighter. I returned to Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time in a few months and still find it a fascinating game. It’s more playable on the PS5 than my original attempt on the PS4, and part of the…

We spend countless hours typing on them, yet rarely give them a second thought, often still using the free bundled keyboard (or a similar one of inferior quality). Right now I’m typing on my trusty Saitek Eclipse, which is a pretty nice keyboard and still being sold under a…

Another lost iPhone? And other news
The news has been plastered with stories of the loss of an iPhone 5 prototype in a bar in San Francisco. Sound familiar anyone? This story just happens to be following the exact trajectory of the lost iPhone 4 prototype last year. This time though it appears to be an elaborate marketing ploy by Apple…

Yeah…about the name change
So, I created this blog sitting in the wifi tent at the gamescom camp for two reasons: 1. I wanted to share my experiences at gamescom and 2. I had nothing else to do. Now gamescom is over I can only really meet the second criteria. Except I probably should be doing a thousand other…
