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…

Any Port(o) in a Storm – Port 1
That should be Part 1, perhaps after too much port. I spent a few days in Porto visiting a laboratory for a digital pathology workshop. Of course, I couldn’t come this far and not spend a bit of time exploring the city on the Douro. Plane. Train. Automobile. And bus. That’s how you get to…

On the Edit
Shelving the Desktop? Due to an “internal technical issue”, my Alienware desktop order was cancelled. I had planned on re-ordering it but was reliably informed by my Intel-insider that the 15th generation of Intel CPUs was due to launch within the next month so it might be worth holding off. So that’s exactly what I…
