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
I’m still plugging away at Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty (excellent DLC, by the way). Here’s what I’ve been up to otherwise. Garden Update The raised beds are showing various degrees of success. One bed is being slowly replaced by potatoes, and has a good crop of lettuce and radishes. A few of the beetroot and…

FDZ (Food, Drinks, and Zombies*)
*The undead monster, not the drink. Hokum May is traditionally known as the most terrifying of months. Tempting us with near 20 degree heat, followed by a drop in temperature and torrential rain. What better way to celebrate the season than with a horror film! Hokum stars Adam Scott as a self-loathing asshole of a…

So that’s exactly what I…

We shot on location at the Walkhampton Inn last sunday which, whilst a great location, brought a raft of other challenges. Working between guests…

I Fix Things
Or at least I’d like to… Half a week in Southampton and a failed platelet donation later, and I’m left with little energy to write. Time for a throw back list! I was heartened to read a recent comment that someone had fixed their sewing machine off the back of a post I wrote a…

A Barbican Brunch
The title says it all. We were down in the city centre of Plymouth several times over the weekend for Seafest-related events (and Toddler Club at Everyman, of course). On Saturday after the cinema we had a quick walk through the stalls on display at Royal William Yard and got to try some circus equipment…
