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…

(Even more) Electrification

Project: Hedgehog (or Hedgehogs and Projects)
Rain. Rain. And more rain. Although that’s not all that visited recently… For the first time in living memory, our garden played host to a little spiky mammal who wandered into view across the patio. The area is rather exposed and patrolled by multiple cats which is probably why we haven’t seen any hedgehogs here…

Summer Rains
After a few weeks of summer, we’re back to Autumn with drenching rains. That hasn’t quite dampened our enthusiasm for getting stuff done. Yes, July is proving to be a wet month already. Good for the plants, but not quite as good for those trying to do things outdoors. We did have the odd sensation…

Sheffield Bound (Again)
Another road trip. The Polestar 2 is racking up the miles! Sheffield. It’s quite far from Plymouth, but don’t let that put you off! Many places are. It’s sort of the deal with living at one extreme corner of the United Kingdom. Sheffield is a vibrant city with a surprising amount of green space, and…
