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…

Metal Shed Solid
Shed, what’s happening? Shed? Shed?! Sheeeeddddd!!! The base is complete! It was in the last issue, and it remains complete. Things have finally moved on with the rest of the build. I started laying out the base panels for a dry run to make sure they were well positioned. On reflection I would have extended…

Shed Loads of Progress?
Shed-gate? Water-shed? It’s not really a scandal, but it is taking a while. Why not have a coffee while you wait? Since getting the bean-to-cup machine I’ve been giving latte art more of a go. The old coffee machine took quite an age to steam milk given its tiny boiler, but it’s a breeze with…

A Tight Shed-ule
One week to do a lot of groundwork, and still continue to attend my actual job… Once the trench was dug out and level(ish), I compacted the soil with the plate compactor before starting the single biggest job. Shovelling four tonnes of subbase was quite the back breaking affair. I had to change tack slightly…
